PETA doesn't even try to preserve life; if you give anything living to a PETA shelter they'll kill it for you, no questions asked (or no questions answered, anyway).<br /><br />It isn't like these guys don't have the money to at least try; they're very, very rich and have a large turnover but all their turnover goes towards trying to pull more money in, to promote an extreme animal rights view (no pet animals, no food livestock, no pesticeides in farming etc.) and last but not least to pay their executives extremely handsome salaries.<br /><br />A proportion of their throughput could usefully be used to run local education programmes and animal sterilisation programmes. People like owning pets; always have, probably always will. Merely killing everything handed in doesn't actually solve the problem of overproduction via puppy mills and irresponsible breeding; neutering all the animals to be rehomed at least mitigates the irresponsible breeding problem whilst letting people own pets.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7800809685910210879.post-20674145066630495702009-11-23T00:19:51.802+00:002009-11-23T00:19:51.802+00:00Yes, they euthanize animals, maybe Drs like yourse...Yes, they euthanize animals, maybe Drs like yourself should go to every shelter and take all the animals. Then Peta wouldnt have to euthanize. In many states where there are no kills shelters, even those are loosing accreditation, because of all the animals being surrendered, and have to be put down, as there are no resources.<br />as for credibility you have none, sorry. Complaining about Peta and there track record is laughable since they have shown abuses. But I guess you are ok with puppy mills, and violence against animals.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01216465489482588250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7800809685910210879.post-85384154112266611722009-11-22T16:40:10.833+00:002009-11-22T16:40:10.833+00:00Whilst the cruelty of this "dish" is not...Whilst the cruelty of this "dish" is not in doubt, I personally would not look to PETA as a shining light of reason in the world of animal rights. Records show that PETA animal shelters routinely kill over 97% of all animals delivered to them, to the extent that the Commonwealth of Virginia has been formally petitioned by The Center for Consumer Freedom to formally change the status of a PETA shelter in that state from "Humane Society" to "Slaughterhouse".<br /><br />No, PETA is generally not a society which cares for animals so much as one which has an ulterior animal rights agenda, and one which is picking up on this horror story as a way of promoting its own agenda. I would therefore caution against believing everything PETA says, regardless of content.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
