Featured  After more than 11 years of pressure from PETA and our supporters, Coach has joined the ever-growing list of fur-free brands and retailers. Now, it's time for the company to ban mohair and angora, as more than 300 other retailers have done. A PETA exposé revealed that mohair-industry workers mutilated goats during shearing and cut their throats with a dull knife. On angora farms, rabbits screamed in pain and terror as workers ripped out their fur.  PETA has secured a first-of-its-kind agreed-upon judgment in its federal lawsuit against a veterinarian who admits to declawing lions, tigers, and big-cat hybrids illegally at an Indiana roadside zoo quite accurately named Wildlife in Need. Share this historic victory for animals, and take action to help those languishing at other roadside zoos.  Dogs, monkeys, cats, mice, and other animals suffering in laboratories need our help—but time is running out to make a gift that will double in impact.  Not only will your pledge help friends and family try vegan this Thanksgiving, for every 100 people who take our Thanksgiving "persuasion pledge," we'll also donate a vegan dinner to a charity working with underserved families.  Holiday fun for humans can translate into hazards for animal companions, but there are some simple ways to keep them safe this holiday.  In episode 7 of PETA Reveals, a veterinarian describes the appalling conditions on China's angora farms. Each rabbit was confined alone to a cramped, filthy, barren cage. Because of the severe crowding, overheating, and unsanitary conditions, hundreds suffered from untreated infections that left them immobilized while they endured a slow, agonizing death from starvation or dehydration. See how you can use your voice to help rabbits on angora farms today.  Following a PETA Asia eyewitness exposé of the King's Cup Elephant Polo Tournament in Thailand, a campaign that helped PETA and its affiliates persuade a dozen sponsors—including IBM, Johnnie Walker, and Vespa—to drop their support, the Thailand Elephant Polo Association decided not to seek permission for a 2019 tournament and to end its operations in Thailand. Thank you to the hundreds of thousands of caring people who took action!  Laboratories are infecting animals with diseases, getting them addicted to drugs, force-feeding them poison, cutting them open, and killing them. Video streaming sites and social media platforms often flag PETA's hard-hitting investigative videos for containing "graphic content," but what if instead of a live animal, the subject is a cuddly teddy bear? Share this video and help people see what happens out of public view.  Vegan options are exploding in popularity at colleges and universities across the United States. See how we ranked thousands of schools in our Vegan Report Card.  What's the scariest day of the year? If you thought it was Halloween, think again. Every day is a horror story for animals in laboratories. And as we've seen with some animal experimenters, the violence can extend beyond animals in laboratories—because they sometimes go on to harm humans, too. Urgent Action Needed |
