Halloween is all about the scares, but your hot date shouldn’t be a frightening affair for animals. After all, only monsters are cruel to animals. Whether it’s a first date with a mysterious stranger or a night out with a flame as old as time, these wicked ideas are full of hex appeal while being animal-friendly. https://lnkd.in/eVk-5k4T #Halloween #Animal #Friendly #Fun #Date #Ideas #VeganTips #AnimalRights #NoExcuse4AnimalAbuse #GoVegan

In the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, a dreadful roadside zoo called the DeYoung Family Zoo exploits chimpanzees—including Louie, who it kept in complete isolation from other members of his species for the first several years of his life. He was shipped to Michigan as an infant, and rather than being nurtured by his mother, he was forced to be a prop for photo ops at the facility. The harsh Upper Peninsula winters mean the chimpanzees spend much of their time indoors, requiring extra mental stimulation. It’s past time that Louie and all other chimpanzees at DeYoung got the space to roam and the complex enrichment and care that they need at accredited sanctuaries. Speak up today by urging the roadside zoo to work with the North American Primate Sanctuary Alliance to make a plan to retire the chimpanzees to accredited sanctuaries, where they could enjoy dynamic social stimulation, an abundance of enrichment, and ample space to roam, climb, and play outdoors year-round. https://lnkd.in/gybpZWKu #Zoo #Zoos #AnimalRights #Chimpanzee #Chimp #Sanctuaries #AnimalSanctuary #AnimalSafety #AnimalWelfare #AnimalCare #SpeakUp

As soon as scary season rolls in, I can’t help but pay a visit to Spirit Halloween (and every other Halloween store in my area). Every year, I stumble upon some gems that I can use to share animal rights messages. Here are the items I found this year and how I would use them to advocate for animals. https://lnkd.in/gE5Q_EiC #SpiritHalloween #Halloween #Spirit #HalloweenDecorations #Decor #Vegan #AnimalFriendly #AnimalSafety #Holiday #HolidayDecor #HoldayDecorations

Halloween may be scary, but life for animals on farms is terrifying every day. We have vegan chocolate candies as well as costumes, soy wax candles, and cute tees so you can help spread compassion for animals, not terror. https://lnkd.in/eReC4Wqb #Halloween #Vegan #Compassion #Animals #GoVegan #PETA #AnimalLiberation #VeganHalloween #Costumes #Candles

Actor, activist, and PETA Honorary Director Pamela Anderson has been instrumental in getting PETA’s animal rights message to the masses. Now, she’s sharing some of her personal recipes to show how comforting and delicious animal-free cooking can be. In her new cookbook, I Love You: Recipes from the Heart, Pamela invites readers into her kitchen with 80 soul-nourishing vegan recipes. https://lnkd.in/gAVF4Zmr #PamelaAnderson #Cookbook #Activism #VeganCooking #VeganCookbook #Vegan #Veganism #VeganActivism #VeganRecipes #Recipes #AnimalFree #SoulFood

Fall is peak wedding season, and if all those declarations of “I do” have you thinking about popping the question, why not choose a compassionate, planet-friendly way to do so? A proposal is the first line in a story of shared dreams and an opportunity to lay a foundation for a relationship built on kindness. There are endless ways to celebrate humanely, like by tossing native flower seeds or incorporating vegan treats. After all, compassion endures—just like your love. https://lnkd.in/eV8idne7 #fall #wedding #proposal #engagement #love #sustainable #celebration #compassionate #vegan #livevegan #empathy #kindness #reasons2govegan

If you’re looking for a fun new way to celebrate Halloween this year, why not try something a little different—like decorating a Halloween tree! This unique twist on tradition can be enjoyed with family and friends or even a date on a cozy night in. https://lnkd.in/dGNmRaXr #Halloween #Festive #Seasonal #Crafts #Decor #Sustainable #Vegan #Celebrate #GoVegan #PETA

A government experimenter wanted to keep the atrocities secret, but PETA said, “We’ll see you in court” first—and now we know what officials were trying to keep quiet. PETA has received the last of the veterinary records for 73 monkeys long imprisoned and tortured in Elisabeth Murray’s laboratory—some for more than a decade—after suing the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the National Institute of Mental Health three years ago to obtain public records related to her experiments. https://lnkd.in/gjqkH_SA #Activism #NotOursToUse #AnimalExperimentation #AnimalSafety #AnimalWelfare #AnimalCruelty #Experimentation #BadScience #AnimalActivism #Activist #SpeakUp #NIH

Target claims to hold itself “to the highest ethical standards,” but the retailer misses the mark by selling pillows and other bedding stuffed with down feathers under the misleading “Responsible Down Standard,” despite knowing that it doesn’t protect birds from suffering. That’s why PETA—a Target shareholder—attended the company’s virtual annual meeting on June 12 to push executives to put their words into action by banning the sale of duck and goose down feathers. By making that conscientious choice, Target would spare many birds a lifetime of misery and a painful death. https://lnkd.in/deTtnQUE #DitchDown #NotOursToUse #Target #DownIsCruel #CrueltyFree #EthicalStandards #VeganLifestyle #AnimalCreulty #AnimalSafety #AnimalAbuse
