NORFOLK, Va. - People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals has ended its protest campaign against KFC in Canada, which pledged to improve treatment of chickens purchased for its restaurants. Norfolk-based PETA said it stopped its five-year campaign this week because KFC Canada plans to buy from suppliers that slaughter chickens by removing oxygen from their atmosphere so they die painlessly, rather than slitting their throats. KFC Canada also will add a vegan option to its menu. KFC Canada President Steve Langford said in a statement that ethical treatment of chickens is important to the company.

PETA will continue its campaign against KFC outside Canada. It is calling on KFC's parent company in the United States, Yum Brands, to make the same changes
