Why We Don't Recommend Donating to Meat the Victims
Accurate as of: Feb 8, 2026
Meat the Victims is an animal protection group that is best known for its public advocacy work.
As part of this advocacy work, Meat the Victims engages in harmful conduct such as:
- Having over 100 activists trespass onto a farm, and refusing to leave.
- Telling people that they should break the law.
- Suggesting that flooding court systems with legal cases is a good way to advance their goals.
Illegal activity undermines the credibility of the animal protection movement, and should not be supported. For this reason, we do not recommend donating to Meat the Victims.
