"I think that I'd certainly want to verify the circumstances of all those surrenders and euthanisations before drawing a conclusion based on the numbers presented."

Please do! Perhaps a follow-up question to the PETA rep could be to please explain why 97% of the animals that were not reclaimed by their owners were euthanized, according to PETA's own report to the Commonwealth of Virginia - Agriculture and Consumer Services located here:

VDACS Animal Reporting

And, if PETA does not operate any shelters, how, then, did 11,096 animals come to be in PETA's care, during 2009, in the first place?
