Tigers and Chickens and Seals--Oh My!

Written by PETA

Posted 06-26-2009

It's been a busy, busy week here at PETA. With so many different campaigns in full swing, we've had people out on the streets protesting the circus, and McDonald's, and the seal slaughter, and … phew. Why don't you just check out the pictures?

*Me-yow!*

At a recent "Unhappy Meal" giveaway, the staff of the neighboring convenience store couldn't wait to protest McDonald's.

Face it, Vancouver Olympic Committee. Protests will continue until the seal slaughter stops.

Hey, Olympic Committee! How about you help us get a "Countdown 'til the End of the Seal Slaughter" clock?

Fried or grilled, flesh is flesh no matter what animal it came from. Hopefully, this restaurant in Nevada got the message (and maybe KFC will too).

I don't know about you, but if I saw a giant seal with a hakapik, I'd pay attention!

It's really disgusting how many murders KFC makes each year or simply how much money McDonald is able to make with kids! It's scandalous but It not seems to change yet...

Come on! I don't support circuses nor the seal slaughter but I swear that you people here at PETA are off your rockers. I have four pets three cats and a snake. They are all wellcared for and loved and my cats were taken away from abusive homes. Now we share a bond and my pets are respected like a human. Why take that away from pet owners like us? And I love eating meat. Are you going to say that human beings as OMNIVORES can't have the carnivorous side of their diet because another animal would be in pain? That is the equivalent of saying that a wolf can't go and kill a caribou to feed its family because it might hurt its feelingswhat have you. Some animals are better off in captivity too because that's the only place they have left due to human expansion. PETA you guys really sounded great but please refocus and take part of what is very important saving the animals hurting the most. Chickens may feel pain like we do and I know that but they aren't going extinct anytime soon. Do that instead of trying to take away people's pets or harassing the furry fandom's largest convention. By the way I am a wolf furry. Just responding to an older post there would be extreme moral issues if I were to even THINK about using real fur and that's how it is with all the other furries. The faux fur I use is made out of acrylic.

I have frequently told my family that they are as smart as lice if they are to eat KFC but everyone agrees on McDonald's am I right?

Meg just on prescriptions for a minute do you mean prescriptions to treat clinical depression? Now that the seal massacre is nearing it's end I couldn't help thinking about the numbers of Canadians and citizens of other nations afflicted with the condition because of the seal "hunt" and other animal abuses...

Not forgetting Meg that most Canadians themselves hate the massacre...and on the massacre's inevitable end on the day the Eu announced the ban on seal products Gail Shea was sitting in her local KFC SLOBBERING WITH RAGE! LOL.

Those comments are made by ignorant people who are too blind to see how wrong animal circuses and among other things are. It's very sad that a lot of people just don't care very sad indeed. They lack sensitive chips. They pretend it doesn't happen they are in denial just with everything else going on in the world. It makes me sad. And to that 'What about the happiness of a 4year old' comment...there is Circus Soleil and many other things that make a four year old happy. But I guess people rather watch an innocent animal do something against its own will so they can laugh. Pathetic. When I have children I will never bring them to an animal circus and when they ask me 'why' I will tell them the truth. And don't even get me started on the seal slaughter...

You know i really don't understand how hard it is for uneducated people to grasp the concept ANIMAL CRUELTY! Obviuosly these animals are being hurt and people just let it pass without a second thought. Good job to the people in the pictures for making such a statement!
