Care for the Wild International have been telling TESCO to stop

butchering turtles alive in China for over a YEAR !

 

VIVA held a national day of action against TESCO, telling them to

stop.

 

 

Turtlesco have been telling TESCO to stop the cruelty, experts,

MP's, MEPS's Celebrities, over 6,000 people !

TESCO continue to sell and butcher turtles while they are still

alive in China.

 

A turtle is unique, a decaptitated head of a turtle can survive

for an hour.

 

I have seen video of a decapitated turtle head long after it was

cut off.

It is fully conscious and even tries to bite what ever goes near

it.

 

That is an hour in extreme pain, quite able to watch its

decapitated body being slaughtered even further.

 

 

The truth is TESCO are only going to listen to one thing, that's

YOU.

 

 

Unless everyone signs the petition and boycotts TESCO and ' fresh

& easy ' ,

 

TESCO will continue to do this to the turtles.

 

 

PLEASE sign the petition and pass this onto to all of your

friends.

 

 

A turtle is eaten in China every two seconds, butchered alive !

 

 

TESCO contribute to that just for profit !

 

 

Have your say, please sign the petition, they will listen to YOU.

 

 

They will stop if YOU tell them !
