Ryan Gosling fights for chickens' rights!

Ryan Gosling is pretty plucking mad.

The Canadian-born actor has fired off a letter to KFC Canada operator John Bitove, CEO of Priszm Income Fund, urging him to stop KFC suppliers' worst abuses of chickens on factory farms and in slaughterhouses.

"The time is ripe to do the right thing," writes Gosling ("Lars and the Real Girl," "Murder by Numbers," "Half Nelson"). "By adopting the basic recommendations made by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals and scientific experts (including raising birds in a more natural manner and employing less cruel slaughter methods), you could dramatically improve the lives and deaths of chickens raised and killed for KFC Canada."

The actor was horrified to find out from PETA about the inhumane slaughter of chickens.  For more information, click HERE.

To see what the Colonel's secret recipe includes, watch this video - narrated by Gosling's fellow PETA activist Pamela Anderson.

Warning: What you are about to see is graphic and disturbing (and I'm not talking about Pamela Anderson) .

BRAVO Ryan Gosling! My hat is off to you, sir.

For some time now, we have seen that Mr. Gosling is an actor of talent and intellect, and now we can add integrity to the description. It is a refreshing and most welcome change when we can laud one of Tinseltown’s Own for showing compassion and setting a good example. (And what a fine-looking example, at that!)

I'm a member of PETA myself, although I did not agree with the Obama-fly attack. I have been emailing cruel companies for two years now. Some of the worst are the Mars inc., which makes Snickers, M&Ms, Three Musketeers and such, McDonalds, much like KFC, and Burger King (not Burgerville). Hayden Pannetiere(I don't think I spelled that right) is another wonderful actor who is a member of PETA.
