Peta and nature conservation organizations are NOT the same thing. They are as separate apart as they could,really. In common, they have the fact that both are extreme and nonsense, as if, somewhere along their furious fight, they lost all sense of what their purpose should be... Both have one same goal, though: give our hobby a hard time!
Peta favours life above all (with a twist of ignorance and childdish poetic sentiment) and conservation organizations worship balance, in a cold sick way, always trying to get rid of "extra lives" that exceed the round number such order should present... Both pathetic, both doomed to lose their fight anyway. I wonder what's each's view on the python problem that storms America at this moment, because the law is so vague in objectives that doesn't quite favour any of them... Interesting. Don't you think? And while all that happens, in a rich country where supermarkets are full and politians take the time to debate these "huge" problems, in India, Africa and Indonesia (home places of the species in question) they struggle with hunger and poverty, and python population is the least of their problems.

Actually PETA only cares about their pocketbook. By setting unreasonable goals that can never be met. They even used the earthquake in Haiti as a means to draw more donations. I have not once on any news channel seen PETA workers rescuing animals in Haiti.Every other natural disaster being a natural disaster they have refused funding when asked. It's all about getting your tax exempt dollar.

Well, that's an even worse thing. I merely stated what their proclaimed goals are... but yes, it's quite possible that they also have some - how to say (?) - lesser goals... Then again, so do politians and other organizations. We are doomed to live with hypocrisy, i guess. That was the point of my post, matter of fact.

That's cool. Ever since I was banned from their forum(i got two posts before being blocked) for stating when to euthanise a animal (geriatric, or when it's quality of life is gone IBD or other) and when not to (because it isn't vegan) I kinda took it personal.
