Elephants and chimpanzees mourn and shed tears if a member of their family dies.

Fish “sing” underwater and like physical contact with other fish, often gently rubbing against one another—similar to how a cat weaves in and out of your legs.

Geese fall in love and are loyal to their partner for life, even when facing danger.

Many orcas in the ocean stay with their families for life.

Mother cows walk for miles in search of their stolen babies.

Rats willingly put themselves in harm’s way to save others.

PETA is here to build a more respectful world for all animals.

While tensions often run high, hopelessness abounds, and conflicts rage around the globe, PETA is empowering humans to recognise the similarities in everyone around them – instead of focusing on our differences. Our “Every Animal Is Someone” slogan will be incorporated into our work for animals.

For animals who are cut open on laboratory tables, prodded onto the kill floor in abattoirs, skinned for leather, or held in cramped tanks in marine parks, our compassion and conviction are critical. We all have the power to help make the world a kinder place and choose non-violence every single day with each decision we make.

Our daily choices of what we eat, buy, and do can have a life-saving impact on animals. One of the best ways to show our solidarity with every animal is to go vegan. PETA will gladly help – we have all you need to get started.

We’ve also created a free, downloadable empathy kit, which offers a step-by-step guide for understanding others’ perspectives and experiences. Share one with a relative who eats meat and cheese, a neighbor who chains their dog outside, a colleague who carries a leather bag or wears wool or silk, or anyone else who could benefit from a lesson in kindness.
