LIVE CHICKS ARE MAILED IN HEAT AND COLD, WITHOUT FOOD OR WATER
Tens of millions of newborn birds are mailed around the United States without food, water or temperature control, and many chicks arrive dead or in distress. This is bad enough, but a new Senate bill (S. 2395) would stop the Postal Service and commercial airlines from implementing important humane policies for shipping live baby birds.
Please help us make this bill a dead letter:

And please ask your friends and family to help these tiny birds, too:

Thank you for taking action for the animals!
Sincerely,
