Please join local PETA supporters to protest Whole Foods for selling cruelly obtained coconut milk. PETA Asia recently conducted its third investigation into Thailand’s coconut industry, in which monkeys are forced to spend long hours climbing trees and picking coconuts. These terrified young monkeys in Thailand are denied the freedom to move around, socialize with others, or do anything else that is important to them. These intelligent animals slowly lose their minds. Because the industry and the Thai government continue to mislead and deceive consumers about their cruel practices, there’s no way to guarantee that any Thai coconut milk is free from abuse. The only solution is to reject all of these products.

Please join us to put pressure on Whole Foods to stop allowing this cruelty!
Here are the details:
WHEN: Tuesday, March 28th from 11:45am–1:00pm
WHERE: Whole Foods Flagship Store, 525 N Lamar Blvd, Austin, TX (please see this map: https://goo.gl/maps/F55eshK8hTMdd1h57)
CONTACT: Amanda Brody at [email protected]
All materials (such as posters and leaflets) will be provided.
Please dress sharp in black bottoms and a black PETA t-shirt (we will provide one if you don’t already own one). Looking uniform helps our message come across much stronger!
Please refrain from bringing dogs as there may not be shade or a safe place for them to lie down during the protest.
Note that reserved parking will not be available, and please be prepared for the weather. Outreach events are a fun and effective way to help animals as well as meet local advocates, so be sure to invite others!
