Featured  Animal experimenters are now griping over the "regulatory burden" of abiding by the one law that gives animals in laboratories a few meager protections—even as they imprison, cut up, starve, and torment mice, monkeys, dogs, rabbits, cats, and other animals. Please let government officials know that protections for animals in laboratories shouldn't be gutted—they should be strengthened instead.  "I received death and rape threats—some protesters actually burned me in effigy and called me a whore on social media."  Right now, "outside dogs" are shivering and cold, chained up and exposed to the elements, without proper shelter. They need your help.  After more than 40,000 PETA members and supporters helped us put pressure on travel company Adventures Within Reach, it stopped offering tours involving captive elephants. See all our victories for animals in December and January.  Deciding to add an animal companion to the family is an important decision. It means making a permanent commitment to provide the animal with lifelong care and affection.  The Verland Foundation knows that victims of these sadistic devices suffer immensely, as they can succumb to shock, dehydration, asphyxiation, or blood loss after ripping themselves apart in their frantic struggle to escape. These two lizards were found stuck to a discarded glue trap and rescued, but many animals aren't so lucky.  If you're among the many people who are planning to forgo meat (including fish), milk, and eggs for Lent, see how you'll have a profound impact on the rest of the world.  Despite hearing from PETA that bears forced to perform in Welde's Big Bear Show are being exploited, the Florida State Fair appears to be moving forward with plans to host this cruel spectacle.  "The greatness of a community is most accurately measured by the compassionate actions of its members."  Companies are starting to ban ejiao, a gelatin made from the boiled skins of donkeys who are imprisoned in filthy concrete pens until they're killed. They're bludgeoned, their throats are slit open, and they're left to die before their skins are removed. Send a message to the Chinese ambassador to the U.S. respectfully urging him to help stop the cruel treatment of donkeys killed for ejiao.  Emmy-winning actor Gillian Anderson is taking on a starring role of a different kind, declaring that she would "rather go naked than wear fur." See how she teamed up with PETA, then tell retailers Simons, Backcountry.com, and Spyder to pull fur products from their shelves immediately.  Learn how PETA is uncovering wool-industry abuse one exposé at a time, how we contributed to the development of in vitro meat, and so much more in the first 2018 edition of PETA Global.
