"PETA Killed 97 Percent of Adoptable Pets in its Care During 2009

Hypocritical Animal Rights Group's 2009 Disclosures Bring Pet Death Toll To

23,640

Washington, DC [WINDOWS-1252?]— Today the Center for Consumer Freedom (CCF)

published documents online showing that People for the Ethical Treatment of

Animals (PETA) killed 97 percent of the adoptable pets in its care during

2009. Despite years of public outrage over its euthanasia program, the

notorious animal rights group has actually increased the number of adoptable

animals it kills at its Norfolk, VA headquarters, to an average of 44 pets

every week.

According to public records from the Virginia Department of Agriculture and

Consumer Services, PETA killed 2,301 cats and dogs last year while only

placing eight in adoptive homes. That means PETA found a home for only 1 out

of every 300 animals at its headquarters. Since 1998, a total of 23,640 pets

have died at the hands of PETA workers.

The actual records verifying this are available online for the skeptics who think people are making it up.

This is not a new story. It doesn't seem to have hurt them because they rely on the grandaddy excuse of them all, they care about the animals they kill, sorry end their suffering. They even had a mobile killing van picking up dogs to rehome and killing them. They were found guilty of littering as they dumped the bodies in skips! But they do care about whales so they can't be all bad.

Those are the 2009 figures, not long released.

Was the same story in 2008

One year they made the papers big time for dumping t he bodies in rubbish skips. this is not that story rehashed, this is a new one - 2009

Good on CCF for publicising this. I hope they reach a wide audience.
