“As a mother myself, I find it particularly disturbing that the dairy industry relies on the violence and the shattering of the mother-infant bond to exist.”

Cheryl Leahy, EVP, Compassion Over Killing

At the national protests, citizens will be expressing their outrage over the documented abuses at Fair Oaks Farms and also denouncing the inherent cruelty of the dairy industry, not only as it relates to Fair Oaks.  

According to Robert Grillo of Free From Harm, Chicago, “The root problem is that animals who are valued by an entire industry as cheap commodities will be treated as cheap commodities, creating the perfect conditions under which abuse thrives.”

Furthering this argument, in a completely separate and unrelated investigation in another part of the United States, Compassion Over Killing’s recent undercover investigation of Martin Farms was featured on ABC 7’s WJLA (Washington, D.C.) by reporter Scott Taylor.  The investigation of Martin Farms, a supplier to Nestle owned ice cream brands, revealed equally disturbing findings of animal abuses, such as painful burning and dehorning without anesthesia.  

Executive Vice President of Compassion Over Killing, Cheryl Leahy, states, “Our investigation of Martin Farms shows severely abusive practices which we believe should be prosecuted like any animal cruelty, just like if it were inflicted on the dogs and cats with whom we share our homes. This includes practices that are commonplace in the dairy industry, and some that are not. Martin Farms supplied milk to Nestle, which severed ties with the farm following our investigation.

“As a mother myself, I find the violence and the shattering of the mother-infant bond that the dairy industry relies upon to exist profoundly disturbing.”

Nestle has since broken ties with Martin Farms due to Compassion Over Killing’s investigation. Protesters and ARM are calling on Coca-Cola to do the same with Fairlife, which gets its milk from Fair Oaks Farms.

At 12:30p Protestors Nationwide are Creating a Mock Dead Pile Like the Dead Pile of Calves Documented at Fair Oaks Farms.

At exactly 12:30p in Chicago, Atlanta, New York City and Los Angeles, citizens will be forming mock dead piles imitating the dead calf piles documented at Fair Oaks Farms by ARM. Their hope is to bring attention to the apparent cruelty in the entire dairy industry.

In Los Angeles, twelve year-old social media star Genesis Butler, who famously asked the Pope to Go Vegan during Lent, and eight year-old YouTube sensation Vegan Evan, will be leading the protest.

“Coca-Cola needs to dump dairy! There’s no kind way to rip baby cows from their mothers so we can steal their milk.”

-Jane Velez Mitchell, JaneUnChained News Network

Video from the ARM Undercover Investigation at Fair Oaks Farms. 

Animal Recovery Mission calls on the Coca-Cola Corporation, which distributes Fairlife products and which claims to have a progressive stance on animal welfare, to end their relationship with Fairlife Corporation and cut their ties with the veal industry.

Best-selling author, TV journalist and founder of the JaneUnchained News Network, Jane Velez-Mitchell says, “Coca-Cola needs to dump dairy! There’s no kind way to rip baby cows from their mothers so we can steal their milk, which is packed with artery clogging cholesterol! Go plant-based Coke! It’s the future!”

In an editorial piece in The Chicago Tribune, it was noted that, “The gratuitous cruelty shown in the video would be appalling for any reputable agribusiness to allow. The bucolic marketing of Fair Oaks Farms represents a double betrayal.”

The ARM investigation of Fair Oaks Farms and its display of horrific abuse has proliferated throughout the media. As a result, several major food retailers, such as Jewel-Osco stores as reported by The Chicago Tribune, have dropped Fairlife products.

Protestors Are Calling for a BOYCOTT of Coca-Cola Until It Ditches Dairy. Businesses Are Already Doing It.

  • This has really affected me and im sure millions of other animal lovers . Its hell on earth for these innocent babies that cant defend them selves who are at the hands of these so called humans.
    Please lets get this horrific cruelty stopped once and for all.

  • Thank you Jane for your work and achievements..
    Keep up the good work.
    I am from South Africa.. And saw the footage of the cruelty to these animals.
    I am so disgusted and appalled that this abuse happens.

    I would love to meet you someday..

    Thank you for what you do..

  • These videos are unbelievably horrendous. Please don’t smile and tell us you didn’t know it was going on. You knew! And so do all the other dairy farms out there. The dairy industry is one of the cruelest businesses around and you sit there with your fake smile and tell us that you have ethics. If you did, you wouldn’t be involved in this stinking business. I will share the videos of the poor calves with all my friends and tell everyone I know about this! No more milk. No more veal. No more COCA COLA in this house!

  • Thank you Jane Velez-Mitchell for defending the voiceless. I will NEVER again buy a Fairlife, Core or Coca-Cola product. I will not even patronize stores that carry them. This is horrific, senseless animal torture and mutilation. If I lived close to Boise or LA, I would frequent these restaurants / cafes every day.

  • I will no longer be purchasing coca cola products. I am appalled that such treatment is happening. There is absolutely no excuse for the physical abuse that is happening to those poor babies. I dont even understand why they separate them from their mothers. Its horrible.

  • Please! Is there any Authority to close down this Animal INFERNO? What´s the purpose of tis sadistic treatment to animals?
