When PETA first received the video of workers at Maine Fair Trade Lobster, we were appalled but not surprised. This is a common practice in the business.

Maine Fair Trade Lobster is in hot water after an eyewitness video captured workers dismembering conscious lobsters by tearing off their claws, puncturing their shells, and ripping their heads off.

Despite being torn limb from limb, the animals remain alive and in agony. One worker said they live for hours in that state. Mutilating lobsters does not cause them to die instantaneously – it causes them pain and suffering, all of which is prohibited by Maine law.

The most compassionate thing you can do for all animals is to go vegan. You’ll be preventing nearly 200 of them every year from enduring violence and a slow, painful death.

PETA’s mission statement is that animals are not ours to experiment on, eat, wear, use for entertainment, or abuse in any other way:
