The Alliance to End Chickens as Kaporos is grateful to Donny Moss of Their Turn for documenting this year’s Kaporos including our vigorously coordinated effort to help the chickens and educate the public about the horrific suffering and death inflicted on these birds – over 700 of whom the Alliance Team rescued and placed in loving homes and sanctuaries around the country. — United Poultry Concerns
