Poultry rescue and adoption initiatives in France

Overview

Animal welfare associations in France are conducting various rescue and adoption operations to save poultry from slaughter.

In the Gers region, the association Champs Libres aux Poules is working to rehome 70 young black turkeys to preserve an ancient breed following a sexing error at a breeding facility. The group is also facilitating the adoption of several hundred red hens in Laloubère to provide them with lives away from intensive farming.

In the Hérault department, the association Les Amis de Noé 34 rescued 250 brown hens from a slaughterhouse in Poussan. These birds, which were previously raised on an organic farm, are undergoing rehabilitation and medical care at a refuge to prepare them for adoption by new families.
