A company in Spain has a plan to torture a million octopuses per year – by raising them in crowded tanks and then killing them by putting them in icy water, which causes a slow, stressful death.
The company knows octopuses are highly intelligent and feel pleasure, pain, joy and fear, but this is their way of turning a huge profit. Now they’re being slammed by scientists and the media – and if enough of us add to the pressure right now we can stop them.
Sign the petition to the Spanish multinational Nueva Pescanova calling on them to stop their octopus torture farm.
