Beauty Without Cruelty calls for cage-free policy
In March 2016, Beauty Without Cruelty called for the end of hen suffering by committing to a petition for a cage-free policy to be adopted by Mcdonalds SA.
United Front 4 Animals (UFA), OWL, South African Faith Communities' Environment Institute (SAFCEI) and Animal Voice, the official South African representative of Compassion in World Farming, added their voices to the campaign.
The Mcdonalds franchises based in the US and Canada have already begun to phase out battery-cage use in their supply chain enterprises which have been beneficial to the hens that produce eggs for their consumers. Mcdonalds SA is yet to adopt this policy.
Yolanda Guse, who is a member of Beauty Without Cruelty SA and who has chickens at home as pets, has voiced her concerns on the matter by creating the petition in hopes that Mcdonalds SA will change their policy to a cage-free one.
Miss Earth SA Carla Viktor, Braam Malherbe, Grant Hinds, Liezel van der Westhuizen, Miss Earth SA Organisation and lifestyle and wellness expert, Lisa Raleigh, have committed to supporting this cause.
Members of the public who would like to support the cause can join the online petition here.
