Disclaimer: This conversation contains graphic depictions of cruelty toward chickens.

This week, Kathy is joined by Harvard Law graduate and founder of the non-profit Legal Impact for Chickens, Alene Anello. In their lively conversation, the two discuss:

  • Alene’s relationship with her pet cockatiel, Conrad, who changed her view of animals forever
  • How working at PETA and the Animal Legal Defense Fund made Alene want to work for animal rights “forever”
  • LIC’s lawsuit against Costco, citing animal welfare law violations, following a gruesome Mercy for Animals undercover investigation
  • The horrific ways that chickens suffer in production plants and why Costco’s treatment of chickens demands legal action
  • Kathy compares Alene’s work to the Nonhuman Rights Project’s work to represent animals in a court of law
  • Alene teases some exciting new projects for her team at LIC
