After receiving a complaint that dollar-store chain Yankee One Dollar was selling glue traps as a form of rodent control, PETA contacted the president asking that he pull them from his shelves. Not fond of condemning mice and other small animals to a slow death from dehydration or suffocation, the president agreed that glue traps shouldn’t be used and agreed to stop offering them in all 25-plus stores in New York and Vermont!

“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
