(ANIMAL SHELTERS) Animal lovers across the U.S.—including a large number of PETA supporters—are undoubtedly outraged to hear about the shockingly high euthanasia rates, yet simultaneously low adoption numbers at PETA’s animal shelter in Norfolk, Virginia. Still, PETA defends their euthanasia policy, claiming they accept animals regardless of their condition, while referring to their facility as a “shelter of last resort.” It’s clear PETA does not embrace the growing no-kill movement as optimistically as many other animal welfare groups, including the ASPCA.

Read the New York Times article here: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/07/07/us/peta-finds-itself-on-receiving-end-of-others-anger.html?pagewanted=1&_r=0
This article is much more accurate. http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/pets/PETA-defends-shelter-kill-rate-amid-criticism-from-other-animal-groups.html read the truth and context at http://www.whypetaeuthanizes.com and don't buy into "no-kill" as a solution. It sounds great but is Utopian and causes more harm to animals…do some research.
I agree that they make animal lovers look unhinged- I am just tired of articles that mislead about their euthanasia statistics. AND I believe that this no-kill movement and their main mantra "pet overpopulation is a myth" is the most dangerous thing ever to happen to shelter/rescue efforts. I also believe that they are in cahoots with breeders and Berman http://bermanexposed.org/
Please research before spreading twisted truths, and don't fall for Rick Berman's tricks. I am sad right now, I thought very highly of your publications 🙁
