Taiwan plans to cull up to 120,000 green iguanas 🦎💔Read PETA's full statement below: These green iguanas are victims of the pet trade, which steals animals from their native homes or breeds them in filthy mills, sells them off like cheap toys, and does nothing to stop buyers from dumping them on the street to fend for themselves. These animals may not be as familiar as the dogs and cats who share many of our homes, but they feel pain and fear just as much and are just as deserving of humane population control. PETA reminds the public that animals are someone, not something to get rid of. PETA urges authorities to prioritize non-lethal strategies, and if culling is deemed necessary, to ensure that it is done according to established guidelines to minimize suffering.

Macaques in Cambodia are a step closer to extinction🚨 The CITES Standing Committee has delayed a key decision on halting the corrupt trade of monkeys in Cambodia.

All of us at PETA are heartbroken. Barbie was one of the first and biggest stars to lend her support to PETA. She used her platform on social media to expose the cruelty of the fur industry, educating millions of people about how animals are confined to tiny cages, trapped in painful steel-jaw traps, and killed by electrocution or gassing. She spoke up countless times for animals, directly urging brands to stop selling fur. She also used her artistic skills to decorate a bear-shaped card to draw attention to how bears in circuses are hung by their necks and forced to stand on two legs. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐬 𝐚𝐥𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐲 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐬 𝐡𝐞𝐫.

PETA's second investigation in weeks into New Zealand’s wool industry exposes rampant abuse at non-certified farms. The cruelty mirrors what was uncovered at ZQ-certified farms, showing that 𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐞𝐥𝐬 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐙𝐐 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬 🐑💔 New Zealand’s wool industry is inherently cruel: 🔴 Lambs mutilated without pain relief 🔴 Sheep punched, kicked, thrown and cut 🔴 Dead animals discarded like trash Stand up for sheep. Watch the footage and take action today:

We appreciate the efforts of the Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) in addressing these issues. However, we know from experience that most abuse goes unpunished for either lack of animal protection laws, politics or an unwillingness to hold major industries accountable. Regardless of any convictions that may or may not follow, PETA’s recent investigation—and our documentation of over 150 shearing sheds worldwide—clearly shows that beating, punching, kicking, stomping, and cutting are standard practices in the wool industry. This is true not just in New Zealand but globally. Read PETA's full statement:

The recent tragic death of a tourist who was bathing elephants at a tourist attraction in Koh Yao Yai, Thailand, is a stark reminder of the inherent cruelty and danger associated with keeping wild animals in captivity. Elephants are highly intelligent, sensitive beings who suffer immensely in unnatural environments where they are forced to interact with humans, often resulting in unpredictable and dangerous behaviors.

PETA Asia-Pacific’s investigation into “ZQ-certified” wool—marketed as ‘humane’—reveals workers punching, kicking, and stomping on sheep. Some sheep were left with gaping wounds stitched up 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘱𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘬𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘳𝘴. One collapsed sheep suffered for two days before she was killed and her body dumped like trash 💔 Don’t buy the cruelty - choose animal-free fashion instead. Take action now:
