Ryan GoslingRyan Gosling has joined celebrities waging war against the bosses of fast food chain KFC over the conditions in their poultry slaughterhouses.

The Oscar-nominated actor has fired off a letter on behalf of People For the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) to John Bitove, who oversees KFC Canada, urging him to stop the ongoing abuse of fowl supplied to his restaurants.

Gosling calls on Bitove to implement meaningful animal welfare reforms, stating, "The time is ripe to do the right thing."

He adds, "By adopting the basic recommendations made by PETA and scientific experts (including raising birds in a more natural manner and employing less cruel slaughter methods), you could dramatically improve the lives and deaths of chickens raised and killed for KFC Canada."

Celebrities who have fired off letters about the KFC abuses in the past include pop star Pink and Pamela Anderson.
