Featured Which companies and CEOs choose torture and greed over compassion? PETA did the research so that you can be informed, spread the word, and take action to help animals in laboratories. WHO'S THE WORST CEO? Tractor Supply Company has taken steps to ensure that Nosey won't suffer on its property ever again. However, Nosey still needs your help—urge the Great Lakes Medieval Faire not to host elephant rides and ask it to join the many venues across the country that have chosen not to use Nosey after learning of her intense suffering. RAISE YOUR VOICE FOR NOSEY The weather is only getting hotter—and dogs without proper shelter still desperately need us to help them. DON'T WAIT UPS has banned the transport of shark fins and live animals as well as ivory. Let the company know that wild animals will continue to be slaughtered to boost hunters' egos and fulfill their perverse sense of "fun" as long as wildlife slayers with something to prove can ship heads, tails, and skins back home. TAKE ACTION TODAY During discussions between PETA and The Home Depot regarding the company's sale of glue traps—products that cause immense suffering to small mammals and birds, who tear off parts of their faces and limbs trying to escape over hours or days—a Home Depot employee found a mouse suffering in a glue trap inside one of its own stores. After witnessing firsthand how animals suffer as they struggle in the traps' adhesive, The Home Depot decided to prohibit the use of glue traps in its more than 2,200 stores nationwide. Now, text GLUE to 73822 or take action online to urge Mercer County officials to join The Home Depot and other entities in ditching glue traps. HELP GID RID OF GLUE TRAPS Federal records reveal that the University of Florida has contracted with Texas A&M University to test on 3-month-old golden retriever puppies who were deliberately bred to have a severe, painful form of canine muscular dystrophy. People are outraged, and protesters were recently arrested after disrupting a University of Texas System's Board of Regents meeting to demand an end to these cruel experiments—you can speak up, too! URGE UNIVERSITY TO CUT TIES Eyewitnesses recorded heavily pregnant sheep being whipped, sent stumbling down slippery ramps, sheared so quickly that most sustained bloody wounds, and driven into the desert to give birth in freezing temperatures with virtually no coat to protect them. SPEAK UP FOR SHEEP Dozens of animals have died over the years in these reckless races, in which teams of horses pull "pioneer" wagons around a track at breakneck speed. They've sustained fractured legs and broken backs and have suffered heart attacks. Speak up for horses and help ban these races at the Calgary Stampede before any others die. ACT TO HELP SAVE HORSES This year alone, at least 34 dogs and 23 children have died after being left inside sweltering vehicles—and it's only July. That's why PETA is urging Apple, Costco, and Google, among other companies, to do their part.
