      <image:caption>It’s difficult to imagine how stressful and terrifying this sadistic ritual must be for the tens of thousands of chickens who are abused and slaughtered in kaporos every year.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - This is kaporos.</image:title>
      <image:caption>The phrase that the practitioners of kaporos are supposed to say as they wave a chicken above their heads is “This is my exchange, this is my substitute, this is my atonement. This rooster (hen) will go to its [sic] death, while I will enter and proceed to a good long life and to peace.” The doctrine of substitutionary atonement is morally appalling, even when the “substitute” is a willing participant in the transaction. But when the substitute is an innocent, defenseless, and unconsenting victim, it’s even more appalling still. Why should someone who bears no responsibility whatsoever for someone else’s sins be sacrificed as an atonement for them?</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - This is kaporos.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Almost without exception, the people who take part in kaporos hold the chickens as this person is doing: with the birds’ fragile wings pinned together behind their backs and held as one would hold a grocery bag. Every indication is that this is incredibly painful for the birds, especially when it happens, as it does often in kaporos, for prolonged periods.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - This is kaporos.</image:title>
      <image:caption>For some of the chickens slaughtered in this horrific ritual, there was at least some reprieve. In an effort organized by Slaughter-Free NYC, a group of animal rights activists came to the site of the kaporos ritual and gave water and fruit to as many of the birds as they could. Of course, this did not spare the birds the fate that awaited them, but it provided some solace and meant that these sensitive creatures wouldn’t die without having experienced some measure of human kindness.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>I think this guy has a crush on me. He kept following me around and asking me questions as he filmed me with his phone. And for some reason, he kept yelling that I hate Jews, which was a lie. I don’t hate Jews. I hate animal abuse. He also made the slanderous and utterly false assertion that I stole a chicken. None of this is surprising. Anyone who thinks it’s perfectly acceptable to abuse animals isn’t likely to have many scruples when it comes to defamation of character. Anyway, if you know this guy, please tell him that I’m flattered by all of his attention, but I’m just not interested. I don’t date non-vegans.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Once unloaded, the crates are piled on top of each other on the sidewalk. The job of retrieving the chickens from the crates and handing them to the congregants is entrusted, for the most part, to children. New York State law prohibits persons below the age of 18 to be employed in a slaughterhouse, but in this makeshift slaughter facility on a public sidewalk in New York City, this and other laws and ordinances are conveniently not enforced by the numerous NYPD officers who are present throughout the event. Mayor Bill de Blasio is also fully aware of what goes on at these events and has made no effort to stop them and every effort to accommodate them. The two words he invokes to defend his complicity in this primitive ritual of blood sacrifice are “religious freedom”. If he were speaking truthfully on the matter, however, the two words he would use are “voting bloc”.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Notice the lack of feathers on this chicken’s breast and keel. Because these animals spend most of their short lives in filthy, crowded facilities that aren’t properly or frequently cleaned, they are forced to live in and directly on large quantities of excrement. Prolonged and direct exposure to the ammonia from all of that fecal matter literally burns the feathers off of parts of their bodies. Just try to imagine the pain it causes to their exposed skin.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>No apparent efforts are made to shield children from the unpleasantness and cruelty toward animals involved in kaporos. On the contrary, many of them are conscripted as participants in the antiquated and bloody ritual sacrifice. Most children exhibit a natural aversion to animal abuse, so it’s easy to imagine how upsetting it must be for many of them to witness it firsthand and perpetrated by people they know and trust.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>During a pandemic that has killed over a million people worldwide and over 23,000 in New York City alone, and which was caused by a zoonotic disease, the mayor of New York City, the feckless and almost universally despised Bill de Blasio, permits thousands of live birds to be stacked in crates on public sidewalks in the densely populated borough of Brooklyn. The threat to public health caused by this situation is of little or no apparent concern to Mr. de Blasio.</image:caption>

Chickens sometimes manage to escape from the cones, even though they are mortally wounded. But their struggle is in vain. Once they’ve had the knife drawn across their throats, there is no hope of survival.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The animals who are exploited for the fur industry never die pleasantly. If they are caught or killed in the wild, they will suffer gunshot wounds or be trapped in cruel leg-hold traps, where they often languish for days and die of starvation, dehydration, and exposure. Animals bred and raised for fur live in filth and squalor and die by any of several gruesome means, including anal electrocution, gassing, and bludgeoning. Please do not support this cruel and antiquated industry. To learn more about what goes into the production of fur, please visit PETA’s website.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The photo on this sign depicts a coyote who has been caught in a painful leg-hold trap. Animals caught in these cruel devices often languish for many hours or even days before the trappers return to the traps and shoot the animals in the head. Despite what the PR team at Canada Goose tells you, there is nothing humane about these medieval devices. And nor are the victims invariably coyotes. These traps are completely indiscriminate and often ensnare and kill endangered animals, companion animals, and many other so-called "non-target" animals.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>This is Artie. He's a potbelly pig who used to be someone's pet. When he failed to stop growing, he was given up by his guardians and he now lives an incredibly contented life with ample space to root around and no shortage of eager human hands to administer (pot)belly-rubs. Most pigs aren't as lucky as Artie, however. In the United States alone, 115,000,000 pigs are slaughtered annually for food. Untold tens of thousands more die from disease and stress before ever reaching the slaughterhouse, and their bodies are often simply ground up and fed to other pigs.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The holes in Bubblegum's ears are vestiges of his former life on a "Farm to Table" operation and reminders of the status of all animals bred and raised for food: that of a commodity. It is customary throughout the animal farming industry to tag or otherwise mutilate the ears of animals such as cows, goats, and pigs, for easy identification and to allow farmers to determine at a glance who is ready to be shipped to slaughter.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>This is Merci. She's one of several turkeys at Tamerlaine who was rescued from the meat trade. In commercial turkey-farming operations, which are concerned primarily with maximizing profits per square foot of space, turkeys are routinely mutilated, crammed together in huge windowless sheds, and killed when they are between five and six months old. In their natural habitat, turkeys can live to be ten years old, so turkeys raised for meat are slaughtered when they have reached only a fraction of their natural age. At Tamerlaine and other reputable sanctuaries, these gentle birds receive all the veterinary care they need, plenty of space, and lots of TLC.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>There is no reason that the relationship between human beings and our nonhuman brothers and sisters should be one characterized by tyranny, exploitation, and oppression. Our superiority of strength and brain-power does not confer upon us the right to exploit and abuse nonhuman animals or to treat them like objects, commodities, and machines. Until we have recognized our kinship and equality with animals, and have resolved to treat them with the dignity, gentleness, and respect that they deserve, we have not realized our own moral potential.

      <image:caption>This is Bubblegum, one of several goats rescued from a "Farm to Table" operation in Westfield, Massachusetts. Many people who consider themselves "conscientious omnivores" make a point of avoiding meat that comes from factory farms, and consume only meat that is the product of small-scale farming operations that market themselves as healthy, sustainable, and ethical alternatives to factory farms. The truth, however, is that as far as the well-being of the animals is concerned, many of these farms are just as bad as, and often worse than, factory farms. When the goats who now live at Tamerlaine were rescued, many of them were sick, all were emaciated, and the farm on which they were being raised was strewn with the decaying bodies of other animals who had died from neglect, disease, and starvation.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>This is Jacob, a Cornish rooster. Of all the terrestrial animals bred, raised, and slaughtered for food in the United States and around the world, the chicken is by far the most exploited and abused. According to United Poultry Concerns, chickens and turkeys constitute 99% of all land animals raised and slaughtered for food in the United States, and upwards of nine-billion chickens are slaughtered every year in the U.S. alone. Chickens raised for meat are typically killed when they are between twenty-eight and forty-one days old, but in their natural habitats, chickens can live for up to fifteen years. The chickens at Tamerlaine are beautiful examples of how well these intelligent animals can thrive when they are given adequate space, proper care, and the ability to establish and live within a natural social structure.</image:caption>
