Pigs, Cows, and other Land animals raised for Meat
Roosters are excellent husbands and fathers, keeping a watchful eye over their families and defending them against perceived aggressors. Unfortunately, their protective nature is often misunderstood, and this combined with the fact they cannot lay eggs, causes roosters to often be abandoned as soon as their gender is revealed. This issue is compounded by their crowing, which makes them unwelcome in most urban — and even many suburban — environments.
While roosters are doting and fierce protectors of their flock, domestic chickens — like domestic ducks — have been bred to have large bodies and small wings, and most are unable to fly away from predators. In most cases, large spurs have also been bred out of them, taking away their last line of defenses as well.

What Humane Long Island is doing to help
Direct Rescue
Humane Long Island regularly coaxes New York City live slaughter markets to surrender live animals during the Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas seasons; and when Toronto activist Regan Russell was killed by the driver of a slaughterhouse-bound truck, Humane Long Island’s executive director persuaded the Vice President of the Iowa Pork Association and CEO of Mogler Farms—a factory farm that kills 150,000 pigs a year—to spare two piglets in her honor.
Making Veganism more accessible
Humane Long Island regularly volunteers with Long Island-based hunger relief organization Community Solidarity and has distributed more than seven tons of plant-based meals and artisan vegan cheeses to low-income communities.
Humane Long Island also supports local vegan businesses and provides free samples of vegan products to affluent communities to stimulate socially responsible investments.
Installing billboards at Busy intersections
Humane Long Island has installed seven billboards across Nassau and Suffolk counties urging passersby to leave animals off their plates and out of their classrooms for an estimated five million impressions.
shutting down slaughterhouses
A live slaughter market was barred from opening in Islip following nearly a year of protests by Humane Long Island and an investigation documenting hundreds of dead and dying chickens left unattended inside crates in freezing and deplorable conditions outside the applicant’s Queens slaughterhouse.
A Humane Long Island investigation led to the New York City DOH shutting down an illegal backyard butcher operation in Forest Hills and prompted the owner to surrender more than a dozen ducks and a domestic goose to our Duck Defenders program.
Headline-grabbing demonstrations
Humane Long Island’s executive director John Di Leonardo made international headlines alongside actor James Cromwell for supergluing their hands to a a Starbucks counter in midtown Manhattan in protest of the coffee titan’s upcharge on vegan milk.
