Photo Of The Day: Chicken Slaughter Art

Lawrence city officials have banned Hansen's art project, "The Story of Chickens: A Revolution," saying it would amount to animal cruelty. Hansen had planned to display coops of chickens across Lawrence. The exhibit was to end with the birds being publicly killed and served as a meal. She says she wanted to demonstrate the animal slaughter process to meat eaters.
