| Featured  The advertising company rejected our billboards that alert dog owners to the dangers of leaving their animals chained outside in the broiling summer heat, including deadly heat stroke and flystrike—a painful condition that eats away at the dogs' flesh. Messages like these are crucial to helping end animal abuse and neglect—urge Lamar Advertising to run PETA's ads and to help stop animal suffering. MESSAGE THE COMPANY  This bear used for an Indiana roadside zoo's wildlife show is so scared that she urinates on herself. WATCH AND SHARE  These gentle, intelligent animals are being abused and barbarically slaughtered—you can help stop this by donating today.

TAKE ACTION NOW  See what former President Barack Obama had to say about animal agriculture and climate change at Milan's Global Food Innovation Summit. Then take the vegan pledge today.

HELP BABY ELEPHANTS  Online retailer Overstock.com joins Anthropologie, Calvin Klein, and hundreds of other companies that have publicly banned angora after learning from PETA that gentle rabbits scream in pain and go into shock when their fur is torn out on farms.
