According to public records (see LINK below), PETA kills 90% of the
animals left at their “Adoption Centers”; only 6% get adopted. From 1998
to the end of 2005 the organization killed 14,400 pets and wild animals
in the center at its Virginia headquarters alone. By the way, PETA
stands for “People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.” It claims to
be an “animal advocacy group.”

PETA president Ingrid Newkirk told the Associated Press (AP) that
actually taking care of animals costs more than killing them. She
admitted that “We could become a no-kill shelter immediately.” But PETA

below) admits that they kill animals – 90% of the animals they took in
last year, according to State records.
