In just the last few years, PETA investigations have resulted in the following:

· Nineteen indictments, including 11 felony charges, against employees of a West Virginia turkey farm—the first-ever felony indictments for cruelty to farmed birds by factory farm workers in the U.S.
· Twenty-two criminal charges against six workers at a sow farm in Iowa, the top pork-producing state, and the first-ever conviction for abusing or neglecting a factory-farmed pig
· A promise from Israel's chief rabbi to label as non-kosher all meat from suppliers in South America obtained by "shackle and hoist," a cruel and archaic slaughter method
