To honor the chickens who lost their lives, PETA, along with Humane Long Island, wants to put a billboard up that states, “In memory of the chickens killed nearby in a fire.” PETA Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman said in a statement the chickens died in “terror and agony” from the flames and smoke. She said the “easy step of going vegan” would prevent further suffering.Amber Canavan, manager of campaigns at PETA, told The Post Monday the organization will be looking for available billboard or outdoor advertising space as close to the truck fire site as soon as possible.
“Instead of people just saying ‘oh that’s sad’ and moving along their day to stop for a second and think about why those animals are on that truck in the first place and what we can do to prevent it, which is quite simple and eat some vegan chicken nuggets,” she said.PETA’s use of billboards is not uncommon.
