Stop Cruel Chicken Toss Now!
Advocates have assembled extensive video and photographic documentation which includes footage of the “chicken fly” (also known as the “chicken toss” and “chicken drop”) during which hundreds of chickens are thrown forcibly off a roof into a shrieking crowd of inebriated people below. The crowd then fights amongst themselves to tackle and capture the birds, terrorizing, often injuring and even killing them in the mayhem.
What More Can I Do?
Urge Ridgeland, Wisconsin Officials to Stop Cruel Chicken Toss
Please call these Dunn County officials and urge them to prohibit the “chicken toss” this year. Whether you reach a live person or a recording, leave a brief, clear, and respectful message expressing your concern for the chickens: their fear and possible injury and the frigid weather.
