Things You Might Have Missed (9-15-12)
PETA News on Tumblr
Don’t miss a
thing. Follow PETA on
Tumblr.
You’ll
never guess what one little thing shortens a woman’s life span as much as if she had smoked 25,000 cigarettes.
You know about the zombie apocalypse:
people attempting to eat each other. But did you know that people eating
animals is also leading to something sinister: the water apocalypse?
The U.S. military has revealed its
powerful new canine service member—a robotic dog! Hopefully, this will save real military dogs from some of the more dangerous
duties.
And a British canine military hero is being honored with the highest award that an animal in the British military can receive for
lifesaving devotion to duty. Theo is said to have detected more Taliban
roadside bombs and weapons caches than any dog in Afghanistan to date.
Another hero dog gave his own life to pull his guardian out of the path of an oncoming train. If only people were
as loyal to animals as they are to us.
But at least this man is: Check out the impressive cat tower that one guardian built to apologize to his cat for having to give him painful ear
drops to treat an infection.
New Action Alerts
Cats should be cherished, not tormented
in laboratory experiments. Ask
the National Institutes of Health to stop giving taxpayer money to the University of Wisconsin–Madison to conduct
crude experiments in which cats have steel coils implanted in their eyes, holes
drilled into their skulls, and electrodes implanted in their brains.

Hip-hop artist and producer k-os always speaks up about things that matter, and he’s showing everyone how to
find their own voice for animals in his new PETA spot.
