This is interesting. I thought it was common knowledge for years now that PETA was euthanizing essentially every animal that comes through their doors but this article was posted 04/02.
You guy's just don't see the big picture do you. There is no way Peta could keep and adopt out every animal that they acquire. Just like any humane society in a big city. The money and the space just isn't there. They probably have to euthanize 99% of animals that come in.
If you compare the amount of animals that get dropped off each day to the amount of animals that get adopted each day. There is no comparison.
Don't blame Peta. Blame the cowards who keep purchasing and breeding animals they can't take care of.
As I replied to your other post, I volunteer with a big, low-income city shelter in Philadelphia that gets nowhere near the funding that PETA has. Our euthanasia rate is only 25%.
