Recent undercover footage documents shocking animal abuse at a dairy farm that supplies milk for pizza giants Domino's, Papa John's and Pizza Hut.
A video from Mercy for Animals shows workers at Winchester Dairy kicking and whipping cows, stabbing them with screwdrivers and dragging them with heavy machinery. Winchester Dairy is a New Mexico farm that provides leading mozzarella cheese supplier Leprino Foods with milk.
Though Leprino Foods has stopped shipments from the farm and the abusive workers were terminated, the supplier has not made an effort to adopt meaningful animal welfare policies that would prevent similar abuse from happening in the future. Please sign the petition to urge major pizza chains to stop using Leprino Foods until they change their policies, and to switch to suppliers with strong records in animal welfare.
