PETA is dedicated to establishing and defending the rights of all animals. PETA operates under the simple principle that animals are not ours to eat, wear, experiment on, or use for entertainment.

PETA has been responsible for closing the largest horse-slaughter operation in the United States, shutting down a military laboratory where animals were shot, and stopping the use of cats and dogs in all “wound” labs. The Philadelphia Daily News said, “PETA has done more to lessen animal suffering than nearly any other organization.”
