Sign petition to protect cephalopods
Around the world, farms are being developed to raise cephalopods like octopuses and squids for human consumption. Help spare these wild animals from a life of suffering in captivity! Although there are no farms currently in Canada, we need to take action to prevent a farmed cephalopod industry from developing. Sign the petition before May 16!
