Critics were quick to fire back at the tweet.

Media strategist Gabriella Hoffman wrote, “You should stop anthropomorphizing animals. Disney is not real life and we are higher than turkeys on the pecking order. Reality bites—sorry!”

Another user tweeted, “Gotta be honest … if a family of giant mutant turkeys wearing clothes killed me and had enough know how to cook me with a bunch of delicious side dishes I don’t even think I’d be mad. I’d be more impressed than anything. One thing’s for sure, whoever made this was on serious drugs.”

One tweet argued, “The most deranged part of this is that they took the extra step of making the mom turkey pregnant.”

For an organization that has been so astonishingly terrible at their core mission they've created more meat-eaters than activists, you have to admire their stubborn dedication to changing absolutely nothing, passionately and arrogant, smug self-righteousness, year after year. https://t.co/qUl4FoocIj

Actually animals eat other animals alive. At least we give turkeys the courtesy of a quick death followed by preparation. https://t.co/rJIeoLwWMw

Yeah wow man, that would really suck. Good thing we evolved to be apex predators and not flightless birds. https://t.co/5MXOr7RGmR

The group’s website also features an article titled, “Turkey Farms Are Lying to You—Here’s Why You Should Celebrate ‘ThanksVegan.'”

The website explains, “Thanksgiving is problematic for a laundry list of reasons, including what’s typically served for dinner. If you think Thanksgiving requires killing animals, you’ve been lied to, friend.”

The article then goes on to list reasons including, “There’s no evidence that turkey flesh was served on the first Thanksgiving” and “‘Happy’ or ‘humanely raised’ turkeys are complete works of marketing fiction.”

Forty million whole turkeys are reportedly consumed in the United States during Thanksgiving.

A report from the Farm Bureau showed the average cost of a Thanksgiving meal for 10 people this year has reached roughly $64.

The cost marks a $10.74 or 20% increase from the 2021 average of $53.31.
