Now, 221 people have been prosecuted as a result of PETA's investigation of these ruthless races and the rampant illegal gambling involved. This is huge progress, but we must keep the pressure on until these deadly races are banned.

6 Bears Slaughtered, 15 Bear Cubs Dead—Oswald's Bear Ranch Is No Rescue

At Oswald's Bear Ranch—a seedy roadside zoo in Michigan that acquires bear cubs from breeders for entertainment and exploits them for tourists' photo ops—at least six bears have been slaughtered and another was killed for supposedly being too "mean." The 39 bears currently being held captive there deserve to live at a better place than this death trap—urge it to send the bears to reputable sanctuaries.

PETA Breakthrough! NIH Embraces Modern, Human-Relevant Sepsis Research

After years of pressure by PETA, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) announced that it will be allotting more taxpayer money to advanced, animal-free test methods in order to find treatments and cures for sepsis, instead of focusing on deadly, ineffective, and flawed experiments on mice and rats that tell us nothing about the condition in humans. Now, please urge NIH to take the next step by ending all sepsis experiments on animals.
