• Detroit School Receives Toilet Paper From PETA

    Written by PETA

    The Academy of the Americas in Detroit has been in the news lately because it has been begging for donations of basic supplies … including toilet paper.

    We can help! Remember our recent "Wipe Cruelty From Your Diet" demos? We'll, it turns out that we've got loads of toilet paper left over, so we're donating the TP with the great vegetarian message to the impoverished schools.

    Remember, researchers have found that even elementary school–age children can begin to show signs of heart disease, such as hardening of the arteries, so the donation does the children a double favor.

  • Fur Wearers, Beware!

    Written by PETA

    'Tis the season to fight fur full-force, and our unstoppable campaigners have been doing just that. They took their eye-catching demos to cities across the Pacific Northwest to show folks the fur industry's horrific practices.

    Animals are left to languish in sickening steel-jaw traps for days. Often, they will force themselves to chew off the injured limb to free themselves in order to get back to their den to feed their young—only to bleed to death later. Those who are not "useful" are deemed "trash animals" and discarded to die.

    Since the fur industry tries hard to keep its methods under wraps, you'd best believe we will boldly display it on street corners, in living color!

    So, give it up for our fearless campaigners!

    PS While we're on the topic, here are detailed instructions on how to rescue an animal from a steel-jaw trap.
