Fast food restaurants have always 
been a favorite among kids as well
as adults.  Good food, friendly
 enviroment......that's what every-
one thinks. But what most people 
don't  realize is the horror that 
the animals endure while being 
prepared as your main course.
With hamburgers, chicken nuggets,
and a variety of other flesh 
products, McDonalds, Burger King,
Wendy's, and many other places
seem like a nightmare to animals.
While being prepared for slaughter,
 animals are kept in tiny cramped 
cages, often in their own urine.
  They never know what the outside
 feels like.  Chickens never get 
the chance to spread their wings 
and walk around and cows often 
never see the light of day.
 After months of being in these
unsanitary conditions, they are
 killed, shipped, and made into 
the food people eat every day.
  As well as being inhumane, these 
conditions pose a health threat to
people.  Diseased animals are not 
excluded as food; they are shipped
 with the healthy ones. There is 
no happy end in sight for many of
 these unlucky creatures, but there
 is something that  we all can do.
 Read on for ideas on  how you can
 help put a stop to this  horror.

There are a few things we can do to
 help the animals.  First and foremost, 
don't eat fast food!  A large boycott 
of these murdering retaurants might be
 just the wake up call they need.  
Secondly, write to your local McDonalds,
 Burger King, etc, and explain why you 
are no longer eating there. Urge them to 
at least give their animals some room to
run around while they are there.  For more
