Freedom for Farmed Rabbits is involved in uncovering the disturbing conditions that exist behind shed doors. *WARNING* Graphic images will be displayed.
While the battery cage may be on the way out for hens, tragically it’s only on the rise for rabbits. Currently across Australia, thousands of domestic rabbits are factory farmed, confined to raised wire cages for the entirety of their lives before being slaughtered for meat.
Freedom for Farmed Rabbits, a Melbourne-based organisation, is working to uncover the disturbing conditions which exist behind shed doors and abolish this largely unknown industry.
Rabbits raised in these factory environments are unable to display any forms of natural behaviour and often suffer severe psychological trauma. Fighting, injuries and disease are rife, with farms reporting up to a 40% mortality rate, one of the highest of any industry. Governed by nothing more than a voluntary code of practice, farms often go completely unlicensed and unregulated.
While petitioning and protesting against companies that profit from rabbit exploitation, Freedom for Farmed Rabbits also works to educate the public so that the demand for rabbit flesh and fur is removed. The organisation therefore highlights the unconscionable practice by targeting consumers and suppliers alike, as well as government.

Freedom for Farmed Rabbits is an incorported animal rights organisation.
We investigate rabbit factory farms and witness the industry practices which are concealed behind closed doors. The purpose of this facebook page is to make this public and finally bring this heinous industry into the light. We bear witness to the birth, short lives and slaughter of intensively farmed rabbits so that we can tell their story and share them with the world.
Because of this our facebook page will contain graphic images and footage. If you do not want these items please either do not "like" our page or hide our posts from your newsfeed. Thankyou.
