Wells Fargo Ends Iditarod Sponsorship
Following discussions with PETA, Wells Fargo ended its nearly 30-year sponsorship of the cruel and deadly Iditarod dog race. Months later, the cash-strapped event cut its purse by $250,000.
“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 E. Newkirk, PETA President and co-author of Animalkind
