PETA Euthanizes Animals

I bet most folks don't know that PETA kills the vast majority of animals given to it.

Let’s start with what I am absolutely not wrong about, which is something most people do not seem to know about PETA: That the animal-rights group kills almost all the pets surrendered to it, almost 3,000 killed in 2006 alone. This information comes from PETA itself, as reported to the Commonwealth of Virginia in a report required of all the state’s shelters. More than nine of 10 pets who end up at PETA are killed there. - Gina Spadafori

Just something to remember as PETA tries to clean up its image. I wonder if Leesburg Tomorrow is going to get in trouble with them now?

Apparently Mr. Kerr’s been busy telling bloggers to stop picking on PETA. Nathan Winograd got a letter, too (PDF). And the Center For Consumer Freedom seems to have got wind of this: It’s all over their sites. Here’s the link to their article. - Pet Connection Blog
