Twitter users went after People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) after the organization posted an unsettling illustration on Thanksgiving Day.
The illustration shows Turkeys preparing to eat a human.
“POV: The dinner tables turned and a family is gathering around your dead body to share why they’re thankful,” the group tweeted.
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.”
