All 750 Pilot Flying J Travel Centers Discontinue Alligator “Trinkets” After PETA Outreach

After learning that Pilot Flying J was selling grisly “souvenirs” made from the body parts of alligators, PETA contacted the company’s CEO to inform him that alligators are confined in filthy pools before being slaughtered so that these “trinkets” can be sold. The company readily agreed to discontinue the sale of such cruel items. PETA applauds Pilot Flying J for this compassionate decision and sent CEO Adam Wright a box of delicious alligator-shaped vegan chocolates in thanks!

“Almost all of us grew up eating meat, wearing leather, and going to circuses and zoos. We never considered the impact of these actions on the animals involved. For whatever reason, you are now asking the question: Why should animals have rights?”

— Ingrid Newkirk, PETA Founder and co-author of Animalkind
