Virginia’s Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services has published statistics of animal shelter records for 2019, and the numbers for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) are shocking. According to the report, PETA killed 1,593 dogs, cats, and other pets last year–a repulsive 66% kill rate. Of the 2,380 pets the organization took in, only 32 pets were adopted out. (Several hundred other pets were sent to other facilities.) Since 1998, PETA has killed over 40,000 cats, dogs, and other animals in Virginia. For more of this story, click here.
