Tell Raley's Grocery Chain to Stop Hideously Abusing Live Animals!

Dear Thea Langsam,

 

Although confining and selling live lobsters is always cruel, Raley's—a

California-based supermarket chain with more than 135 stores—has gone overboard

when it comes to abusing these animals. The company is putting live lobsters in

tiny plastic containers that are barely larger than the animals' bodies. The

lobsters don't get any water to live in, and they receive no food at all until

they are sold or die.

Please click here to send a message to Raley's, and ask the company to follow in

the compassionate footsteps of Whole Foods and Safeway by ending the sale of

live lobsters. Also, please forward this alert to your friends and ask them to

write in—Raley's needs to know that cruelty to animals is not acceptable.

Thank you for everything that you do for animals! If you'd like to get more

Stop Abusing Lobsters at Raley's

Dear [decision maker name automatically inserted here],

I am shocked to hear that Raley's sells lives lobsters in tiny plastic

containers in its stores. These lobsters receive no food or water until they are

sold or die. One Raley's store manager has said that lobsters in the containers

usually die in a matter of days.

 

Does Raley's really find this kind of animal abuse to be acceptable? I urge you

to follow the lead of popular grocery chains such as Whole Foods and Safeway and

stop selling live lobsters at Raley's stores today.

Sincerely,

 

Thea Langsam

What's At Stake:

 

Just like other animals, lobsters feel pain and suffer. Grocery giant Whole

Foods recently decided that there was no humane way to keep live lobsters in its

stores and stopped selling them altogether.
