As seen in other farm animals, #chickens who have positive experiences with humans experience calm, comfort, and protection in their presence, which can mitigate stress.
Humans can actively foster positive welfare in #chickens.

Sickening. "While slaughterhouses are legally required to keep CCTV recordings, the system relies on [monitoring] and self-reporting". Self-regulation DOES NOT WORK. #AnimalCruelty #AnimalWelfare #FarmAnimalWelfare

Trump has crippled USDA-ARS research on farm animal welfare. Freezing new hires and terminating probationers reduces LBRU to a single scientist. Now unit is non-sustainable. Disgrace. #FarmAnimalWelfare
New paper out today in Frontiers in Animal Science, lead by Dr Stuhlträger.

#FarmAnimalWelfare - wholly unacceptable.
#FarmAnimalWelfare - now over 30 million animals a year slaughtered without pre-stunning in the UK under religious exemption.
Includes prohibition of 'rescue decks'. Good to see measures against litter sizes too big for the sow to rear.
