Farm Sanctuary's Celebration FOR the Turkeys Video

Enjoy this footage from our 2006 and 2007 Celebrations FOR the Turkeys at our New York Shelter. Our rescued turkeys become the guests of honor and indulge in a festive feast of pumpkin pie, squash, cranberries, and other goodies made just for them!

Everything is ...
Everything is consumer driven. U wanted factory farms u got em. Now u don't want that either.? Then u go and feed all the turkeys in the country pies and luscious dishes and pay for it and see where it gets u. Cute video about turkeys but unrealistic and do they do this every day????? According to your ideals they should

@TheRealEda ...
@TheRealEda Farmsanctuary promotes a 100% vegan diet but they just use the term "vegetarian" because its less confusing for people that aren't as educated about animal rights as? we are. And I totally agree I LOVE farmsanctuary :)

@wanttoseemysnake ...
@wanttoseemysnake We supposedly evolved from apes, which are? herbivores. You can tell if a food is natural for your species if you can gather it yourself only using your body. I highly doubt you would be able to run down a rabbit and kill it; and could you catch a cow using no traps, then jump on its back and bite through its muscle, bone and flesh? I highly, highly doubt it. Meat and dairy have also been known to cause tons of diseases for our species, like heart disease.

@ThePittieluver ...
@ThePittieluver Monkeys are omnivores,they will eat meat though we are humans and not monkeys. We can? kill and eat what we catch raw and w/o tools but why would we want to?

@wanttoseemysnake ...
@wanttoseemysnake Actually a lot of research has pointed to humans being herbivores. Think about it, if we evolved from monkeys...and monkeys are herbivores...then how are we omnivores? We also have a long digestive system, which all herbivores have,? and carni/omnivores do not. And if we are omnivores we should be able to catch and kill our food with no tools or help. And you don't have to eat grain/flax seed. It has nothing to do with veganism. I'm just sharing what I know...

@ThePittieluver I ...
@ThePittieluver I would eat my dog if we eat dogs. I eat rabbits I raise for meat. The difference between a pet? rabbit and a meat rabbit is a name, we don't name our food. Humans were designed to eat meat, try telling me that we aren't and I'll tell you about my grain/flax seed allergies. Vegans go over the top sometimes...

@wanttoseemysnake ...
@wanttoseemysnake Us animal activists are not pushing for what's better for the animals, we're pushing for what's best! Although we are against factory farms, they aren't the main issue. The issue is animal rights! Think of it this way: if you wouldn't eat your dog, who is smart, loyal and loving, why would you eat a pig who is just as loyal and even smarter? No one wants to die, we all dream that same dream? of life...so why not let everyone live it? Im going for animal rights.

I'm not a ...
I'm not a vegetarian but for the turkeys, I'll give up eating them? on Thanksgiving :)

I need to get my ...
I need to get my butt up there so I can experience these wonderful creatures in person.? Now that's a Thanksgiving I'd love to be a part of.

@batcountryrabid ...
@batcountryrabid Not all meat is factory farmed nor dry. I don't believe in factory farms but I also don't think people should push for total vegan as that causes more back? lash. Basically you can't change a person's diet but you can change their source, give the animal a good life before butchering is a lot better then the current factory farmed animals.

@batcountryrabid I ...
@batcountryrabid I object to your comment about turkey being "dried out". if cooked right, it can be really? awesome :)

@saintsalive1234 I ...
@saintsalive1234 I just eat the 'side dishes'. maple roasted brussels sprouts, candied yams, garlic mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce--those are delicious enough, if not more, than dry,? cruelly farmed dead animal.

very true!! ? .. ...
very true!! ? ..but that doesnt apply here. its too vague

@samnaps1 To quote ...
@samnaps1 To quote Martin Luther King "An injustice everywhere, is a threat to justice everywhere". This food used here to feed turkeys is not being taken away from those who are without homes or food. And we as a country spend more money and food resources on feeding our cows, chickens, turkeys, pigs, etc grain that they wouldn't naturally eat anyway to fatten them up for human consumption, that if we stopped making animals for human consumption we could feed all those? humans in need.

Awesome! ...
