I am thrilled to announce that less than three (3) weeks after the launch of the Open Wing Alliance’s Heartless Hospitality campaign, we have a complete campaign victory! All targets, HiltonLouvre Hotels Group, and Meliá Hotels International, have publicly pledged to report on their global progress to drop cruel cages from their egg supply chains. 

Did you know that, combined, these companies use approximately 285M eggs per year, meaning that fulfilled cage-free commitments would affect the lives of roughly 861,000 hens?!

This pivotal and impactful victory would not have been possible without the Open Wing Alliance and animal advocates all over the world!

Following confirmation of a HPAI outbreak at a Maricopa County facility affecting 2.3 million egg-laying hens, Animal Outlook's investigator travelled to Arizona to record depopulation efforts at Hickman's Eggs in Tonopah. The footage shows piles of dead birds being poured into dump trucks by wheel loaders scooping out huge barns and workers without personal protective equipment covering their eyes, face, and mouth. Animal Outlook's investigation was picked up by AZ Family (the local CBS affiliate), local news source InMaricopa, and the state's biggest newspaper, The Arizona Republic. Thanks to Dr. Crystal Heath of Our Honor for her expert guidance.  Following the investigation, Hickman's, which is the largest egg producer in the Southwest and the 16th largest egg producer in the US overall, announced it was shutting down the vast majority of its operations for two years after admitting that bird flu had impacted six million of the birds in its facilities.  https://animaloutlook.org/investigations/hickmans-eggs-investigation/
