PETA Denounces Bad Bunny’s Use of Live Chickens in Puerto Rico Residency

PETA argues that live-animal acts normalize cruelty toward animals during his record-breaking Puerto Rico run

Overview

  • PETA Latino published a video on July 16 accusing Bad Bunny of subjecting live chickens to cruelty during his “No Me Quiero Ir de Aquí” residency at the Coliseo José Miguel Agrelot.
  • The organization said using live animals as stage props reduces them to mere accessories and risks normalizing mistreatment in entertainment.
  • This marks PETA’s second public campaign against the artist after its 2024 criticism of a live horse onstage during his “The Most Wanted Tour.”
  • Bad Bunny has not issued any official response to PETA’s allegations regarding animal welfare in his performances.
  • The 30-show residency runs through September 14 and will be followed by his world tour opening November 21 in the Dominican Republic.
