Animals are not ours to experiment on, eat, wear, use for entertainment, or abuse in any other way.
About us
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) entities have more than 9 million members and supporters globally, and PETA U.S. is the largest animal rights organization in the world. PETA focuses its attention on the four areas in which the largest numbers of animals suffer the most intensely for the longest periods of time: in laboratories, in the food industry, in the clothing trade, and in the entertainment industry. We also work on a variety of other issues, including the cruel killing of rodents, birds, and other animals who are often considered “pests” as well as cruelty to domesticated animals. PETA works through public education, cruelty investigations, research, animal rescue, legislation, special events, celebrity involvement, and protest campaigns. PETA Foundation was founded in 1993 as an organization that helps PETA run, and includes departments like IT, Development, and Interactive Media. PETA and the PETA Foundation are two separate organizations but work very closely together. Looking for a career in animal rights?

You won't believe the cruelty to the camels and horses that are used in the tourist trade in Egypt. PETA's Jason Baker talks about the bloody animals he saw in Giza that made him realize the need to prioritize the camels that cater to tourists in Egypt. Don't ride camels in Egypt. See why. https://lnkd.in/gRhbassM #tourism #animalcruelty #animalsafety #animalrights #Egypt #podcast #applepodcast #spotifypodcast #Giza #camels #animalwelfare #animalactivism #activism #activist #howtohelp

PETA has been saying this loud and clear for all to hear: Sepsis experiments on animals are cruel and utterly useless for understanding the deadly condition in humans. We have plastered it on placards, bombarded officials with hundreds of thousands of e-mails, shared video messages from humans who nearly died of sepsis, and filed a landmark lawsuit to get someone in power to pay attention. Now government officials are finally listening. Please take action by telling NIH to halt its funding for all cruel and pointless sepsis experiments on animals! https://lnkd.in/eUVMpPzn #experiments #cruel #cruelty #action #TakeAction #NotOurs2Use #NotAnExperiment #pointless #activist #activism #AnimalRights #AnimalLiberation

When it comes to coffee and tea creamers, you may have to try a few before you find the perfect one for you. Some are creamier, some are sweeter, but there’s something that all the best ones have in common: They don’t harm cows by using their milk. Even if creamers tout a “dairy-free” label, you may find milk derivatives such as casein in the ingredients. Thankfully, there are so many delicious vegan coffee creamers to choose from, and they’re widely available in most grocery stores. https://lnkd.in/e-aC8F-U #coffee #creamer #vegan #GoVegan #LiveVegan #WhatVegansEat #CrueltyFree #AnimalRights #AnimalJustice #NotOurs2Use #advocate

Shady exhibitors should sleep with one eye open because PETA is always keeping tabs on roadside zoos that subject animals to miserable exploitation. Laws meant to protect animals at these seedy facilities are alarmingly inadequate—but as we have seen, many of these abysmal operations can’t even meet the bottom-of-the-barrel minimum standards of care. We ensure that roadside zoos don’t get off scot-free by contacting authorities when we receive tips from concerned individuals or when we see red flags on social media. Every time we alert officials to abuse and neglect at a roadside zoo, we get one step closer to shutting it down. We’ve exposed operations for denying animals adequate space and enrichment, for failing to provide animals with needed veterinary care, for confining animals to filthy enclosures, and for other apparent violations of the federal Animal Welfare Act (AWA). Over the past years, we’ve seen a promising spike in citations and inspections from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) that stemmed from our complaints. https://lnkd.in/eprsjaPi #RoadsideZoos #misery #animals #exploitation #NotOurs2Use #NotYourEntertainment #AnimalJustice #EndSpeciesism #AnimalLiberation

HBO is stuck in the past in more ways than one, as the studio still exploits live horses in its series The Gilded Age. If you missed last season, here’s a quick recap: Multiple whistleblowers alleged that horses on set had been overworked, including one who had died. The period drama’s third season began filming on August 5 in Albany, Schenectady, and Troy, New York—and PETA’s reminding everyone to be on high alert so that history doesn’t repeat itself. The whistleblower alleged that apparently distressed horses were denied water and adequate breaks while being forced to work long hours in 90- to 100-degree weather. A horse reportedly also broke away from a wrangler and trampled an actor, an incident the whistleblower claims could have been avoided had the production taken a break for lunch to allow the horses to rest. HBO really shouldn’t use horses in its productions at all—but at the very least, it needs to help ensure the welfare of horses on set. In addition to our bold demonstration, PETA called on local animal control to investigate the allegations of cruelty to horses and asked HBO for a necropsy report that reportedly had been done on the horse who collapsed and died in June. https://lnkd.in/e6aHxvap #NoExcuse4AnimalAbuse #AnimalRights #Whistleblower #ReportAnimalCruelty #Advocate #AnimalJustice #NeverBeSilent

To memorialize the brave bull who did everything in his power to escape a slaughterhouse truck that he was being loaded onto in Raynham, Massachusetts, only to be shot and killed hours later when he was found near Lake Nippenicket in Bridgewater, Massachusetts, PETA plans to place a billboard in his honor near where he was killed with an urgent message: “Help Others Escape the Slaughterhouse: Please, Go Vegan.” This bull ran for his life and fought as hard as he could for his freedom, as any human would if someone tried to send them to slaughter. PETA’s billboard will remind everyone that they can honor his bravery and win freedom for all other animals—from pigs to birds—by keeping them off their plates. Each person who goes vegan spares the lives of nearly 200 animals every year, dramatically shrinks their carbon footprint, and reduces their risk of suffering from cancer, heart disease, strokes, diabetes, and obesity. PETA’s free vegan starter kits can help those looking to make the switch. https://lnkd.in/eiSKAe9s #cruelty #NotOurs2Eat #FriendsNotFood #AnimalRights #AnimalLiberation #GoVegan #LiveVegan #VeganActivist #MeatIsMurder #FreedomForAll
