Thanksgiving and the Adopt a Turkey Project
Adopt a Turkey Project: “Free Birds” Characters Invite You to Adopt a Turkey
Turkeys are everywhere you look now right now, but unfortunately there’s little talk of what the folks at Farm Sanctuary know so well: That turkeys are, in fact, intelligent and social animals, who form lifelong bonds, possess distinct personalities, and exhibit a joy for life.
Please consider helping Farm Sanctuary’s efforts to protect these sweet and gentle birds from cruelty by writing something about our annual Adopt a Turkey Project.
“We want you to join our flock and adopt a turkey today!” say Reggie and Jake, the animated stars of the new movie “Free Birds” in theaters now.
These lovable characters, voiced by Owen Wilson and Woody Harrelson, have teamed up with Farm Sanctuary , the largest farm animal rescue and protection organization in the United States, to serve as “spokesturkeys” for the group’s annual Adopt a Turkey Project.
The Adopt a Turkey Project, which gives people the opportunity to sponsor one of the rescued birds who reside at the group’s shelters in New York and California, has provided care for more than 1,000 rescued turkeys over the last 25 years. For a one-time donation of just $30, adopters receive a special adoption certificate complete with color photo and fun details about their new adopted turkey friend.
