Featured The president of the Cheyenne Animal Shelter reportedly instructed workers to restrain a dog named Tanner using a control pole, "agitate" him, and spray him in the face with pepper spray—a noxious liquid that causes a debilitating and painful burning sensation in the eyes, respiratory tract, and mucous membranes. After PETA shared with Procter & Gamble, The New York Shaving Company, and others that badgers are caged, left with untreated injuries, and violently bashed over the head and that their throats are slit for China's badger-brush industry, the companies committed to banning badger hair. University experimenters are deliberately breeding golden retrievers with a painful form of muscular dystrophy and subjecting them to horrific tests. PETA's free Vegan Mentor Program helps ease the transition to going vegan by providing one-on-one support from a personal vegan coach. Mentees are paired with their own mentors, who can answer questions and offer guidance with tips on shopping, cooking, eating out, nutrition information, and more. Animals are mutilated, poisoned, burned, psychologically tortured, electrocuted, and deprived of food and water at U.S. universities. Let's work to end experiments on animals at these eight schools. A love of dogs led "River Mike" Cranford to become a "handler," helping out Iditarod mushers at their kennels. A love of dogs also made him quit, and from his deathbed, he contacted PETA with one last request: End the Iditarod and free the dogs. You can help by urging Anchorage Distillery, Alaska Airlines, Coca-Cola, and others to stop sponsoring the Iditarod now. Members of PETA's Emergency Rescue Team found a small kitten crying out, scared, alone, and clinging to a railing that was floating in waist-deep floodwater. They saw chickens—surrounded by others who had drowned—who were soaked to the bone in a pen threatened by rising waters. They saw panicked dogs abandoned inside flooded houses and left on porches. One had nothing to stand on in his fenced-in yard and had to keep swimming. See the video footage and find out how you can help animals caught in a crisis. Times are changing, and companies are waking up to the cruelty inherent in using animals for fashion. Already, 320 brands worldwide—including Topshop, Zara, Gap, H&M, Brooks Brothers, and Ralph Lauren—have banned mohair after learning from PETA that workers in the mohair industry were seen dragging terrified angora goats by the horns and legs, lifting them by the tails, and cutting off their skin during shearing. Tell retailer Free People to join these other companies and ban mohair immediately. In episode 3 of the PETA Reveals series, Dr. Alka Chandna tells the story of a caged monkey who risked severe punishment to try to help another monkey and explains how seeing that gesture inspired her to stand up for what's right. Listen to her story, then take action today for monkeys caged in laboratories and used in drug-addiction experiments. Urgent Action Needed |
