Update: Following our investigation inside Aviagen Turkeys, Inc., 19 indictments for cruelty to animals against former employees have been filed. This is the first time in U.S. history that factory farm employees have faced felony cruelty-to-animals charges for abusing birds.

Nearly 270 million turkeys are killed for food every year in the US.
