Frankenchickens: Bred to suffer
Frankenchickens grow so fast that they experience pain, become ill, and die prematurely. Therefore, Project 1882 now urges the EU-commission to act by working for a ban on the breeding of Frankenchickens. Sign the petition today!

What happened with the images from Swedish pig factories?
Public outrage, animal‑welfare inspections, and silence from the politicians. Here’s what happened with Project 1882’s images from inside Swedish pig factories.
Factory farming fuels yet another avian flu outbreak
A new outbreak of avian influenza has been confirmed at a chicken breeding facility in Sweden, where approximately 50,000 birds have been culled. Project 1882 argues that factory farming must be phased out in favor of a transition to plant-based food production.
Large turnout at the protest in Brussels for an EU ban on fur farming
The European Commission appears to be leaning towards stricter regulations rather than an all-out ban on fur farms. A protest was therefore held in Brussels to remind the Commission that a ban is the only right way forward.
Strong public support in Sweden for phasing out fast-growing chicken breeds
A new public opinion survey by Project 1882 shows that a majority of voters in Sweden support a ban on fast-growing chicken breeds. With national elections taking place in Sweden this year, this should be an obvious policy commitment for political parties that claim to prioritise animal welfare.
Frankenchickens: Bred to suffer
Project 1882 is urging the EU Commission to work for a ban of the breeding of Frankenchickens. Take action to end the blight of Frankenchickens, sign the petition today!

About Project 1882
With effective campaigns and political advocacy, Project 1882 makes a difference globally for the animals that are the most exploited and suffer the worst. We have been a driving animal advocacy organization in Sweden and beyond since 1882, creating change for millions of animals.
How we work
We provide information about animal welfare and bring citizens' opinions to those in power. We shape public opinion and influence legislation. We dismantle factory farming and advocate for the development of animal-free research methods. We inspire and enable consumers and companies to choose vegan options and make animal-friendly choices. With effective campaigns we engage the public, highlight animal welfare problems, present solutions and bring about concrete changes.
Support our work
Project 1882 is entirely dependent on donations from the public. All donations make a difference and help create concrete results for animals. If you want to support our work for the animals, you can do it here. Thanks!
Focus areas
Project 1882 works globally to make a difference for the animals that are the most exploited and suffer the worst. Our clients are the chickens, hens, cows, pigs and other animals in need of our help − we are there to give them a voice and defend their rights. That is the core of our project since 1882.
