Does PETA kill animals

Answer 1

A couple of people who worked at a PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) shelter were arrested for this. It turned into a public relations nightmare for PETA. But the actions of the individuals do not reflect the ideals or activities of the organization as a whole. Read the linked article and make up your own mind whether PETA did it or whether a couple of their troopers acted independently. A link is provided to a newspaper article on this 2007 incident.

----------

It seems that PETA's policy is to euthanize most, and sometimes all, of the animals rescued by its members. The headquarters has a large "kill-room" & meat freezer, and records show that only a handful of the animals PETA has rescued were even allowed to be put up for adoption. The rest - over 90% - were euthanized.

It seems that PETA is more about control & Propaganda than actual animal rights. Many of the recruits are decent, honest-to-goodness animal lovers. But the people in charge have insane ideas, and encourage eco-terrorists to destroy property & kill innocent people and animals.

So yes, PETA kills dogs. If you want to fight for animal rights, join a real animal-rights group like the SPCA or Humane Society. I personally recommend the SPCA.

Answer 2

No! They put animals who are suffering out of their misery, which no one else is willing to do. Shelters that keep animals locked in tiny cages left to languish without adequate necessities until they go insane and die a lonely, drawn-out death is not ethical. It's refusing to give these animals an honorable end and then point fingers at those that do.
