Their Eyes Are Cut Off — Alive and We Need Your Help to Stop It.


This shrimp will have her eyes cut off—alive—unless we stop it.

Imagine being fully conscious…


And someone takes a blade and cuts off your eyes.



No anesthesia. No pain relief. Just raw agony.


That’s exactly what happens to BILLIONS of female shrimp in industrial farms.


All to force them to reproduce faster.

Stop Eyestalk Ablation Now


It’s called eyestalk ablation.


A brutal practice where shrimp have one or both of their eyestalks crushed, burned, or sliced off — while they’re still alive and aware.


Why?

Because removing their eyes shocks them into laying more eggs.


But shrimp are not mindless.


Scientific research confirms: they feel pain.


They suffer.


Struggling for breath in man-made misery.
Struggling for breath in man-made misery.

And yet, this mutilation happens every single day in the shrimp industry — with ZERO protection for the animals involved.


Now imagine the end of their lives.


Most shrimp are dumped into ice slurries — left to slowly suffocate to death.


All for seafood.


But it doesn’t have to be this way.


Some producers have started using humane stunning before slaughter.


Others have stopped eyestalk ablation altogether.



The industry CAN change. But only if we force it to.


These animals may be small, but their suffering is immense.


At 600MillionDogs.org, we believe that no creature should endure this kind of torture — no matter their size.


Please join us.


Speak up for the voiceless.


Sign now and demand humane treatment for the world’s most farmed animal.



Thank you for taking action for animals who desperately need it.
