Two billboards showing pigs braving floodwaters urges Columbia residents to “Stop eating meat!”
The billboards our courtesy of PETA, who says the signs, placed near a meat market, restaurants, and a butcher shop on St. Andrews Road and another on U.S. Route 1 between N. Grampian Hills Road and Dogwood Court say pigs like this “die for your cruel and dirty habit” of meat-eating.
The signs, PETA says, are directed toward those who raise the animals and allowed them to die in flooding conditions after Hurricane Florence.
“If this message of compassion inspires just one person to leave pigs and chickens off their plate, there will be less support for an industry in which millions of animals die horrifically, whether in a slaughterhouse or during hurricanes and floods,” says PETA President Ingrid Newkirk. “PETA’s billboards urge meat-eaters to change their ways before the next wave of animals die slowly and painfully in a natural disaster.”
