Walmart: End the Cycle of Dead and Dying Betta Fish

Betta fish are often starved for several days and confined individually to cramped bags during transport to retailers. They're sold to shoppers who are often unaware of their care needs, and many fish suffer and die as a result. Those who survive are often forced to live and die in a small bowl. Please urge Walmart to stop selling betta fish immediately.
