Mark Hooper Joins NZPork Board as Independent Director
Rural leader Mark Hooper has been appointed as an independent director to the NZPork board, bringing extensive farming, governance and advocacy experience to the role.
An advertising company says it likely won’t accept a request from the animal rights group.
PETA said in a statement that it was seeking to place a billboard at the site where a truck overturned along Interstate 40 near Winston-Salem “in honor of the cows who were injured and killed.”
About half of the 41 cows on board the tractor-trailer died when it crashed on the way from Kentucky to a slaughterhouse in Asheboro, North Carolina.
The driver told a local TV station a family of deer ran into the roadway and he swerved to avoid them.
