Watch the syringe 😰 For dogs bred to be used in experiments, the horrors start at birth  💔 Dogs deserve loving homes—not this.

🚨 That “dead” opossum may not be alone. Mother opossums carry their babies in a pouch, and those babies may still be alive after she's been injured or killed. If it's safe, check for signs of life, look for babies, and call a wildlife rehabilitator for help!

How can you claim to love them if their appearance matters more to you than their health?   French bulldogs and other breathing-impaired breeds don’t care how they look; they just want to be able to breathe.

SHARE BEFORE THE FIREWORKS START 🚨 An animal's life could depend on it! The Fourth of July can be one of the most frightening days of the year for dogs and cats. Terrified animals may run away, become lost, or suffer injuries while trying to escape.

Look at the fear in her eyes. She feels everything. Before they are violently killed, many pigs are left conscious after being stunned with electric probes.

USMNT fans deserve the best! 🇺🇸⚽ We handed out free, delicious, and protein-packed vegan jerky ahead of the USA v. Bosnia and Herzegovina World Cup match to help fans stay fueled up and ready to roar 🥅

Dogs who are kept outside 24/7 are in serious danger in the summer heat 💔🔥 If you know a dog like Bella, talk to their owner about keeping the dog indoors, and make sure they have plenty of shade and fresh water when they are outside. If you see a dog in distress, call local authorities for help!

Hamsters are being injected with parasites, left to suffer for weeks as worms feed on their blood, & then killed for cruel, pointless @umasschan.bsky.social tests 😔 This experimenter's carelessness led to a citation by the @usdagov.bsky.social, we NEED to shut this place down! www.peta.vg/4806

Happy Birthday to animal defender Pamela Anderson 🩵 She’s been a vegan food advocate for years, and we adore how she’s helping others see the delicious world of plant foods through her cookbook "I Love You: Recipes from the Heart!"

What we did while you were eating breakfast ☕️ With the help of , PETA confronted shareholders at @Petco's HQ over our investigation into a breeder tied to the chain, where 10,000 birds were crammed into filthy cages & workers were caught violently killing them 💔 #DITL

One year ago, we helped rescue 5 monkeys seized from a now-closed roadside zoo. Zeus, Calliope, Monet, Bear, & Blue are now safe at @bornfreeusa.bsky.social exploring real habitats, & finally living among others of their kind, the way their lives should have always been 🐵💙

Kylian clearly had Mexico on the brain! We named these rescued kittens after soccer legends, Kylian Mbappé and Leo Messi, for the World Cup, and this little guy couldn't resist giving Mexico's flag a nibble. Their next goal? Scoring a loving home together ❤️

Animals are not your ticket to a viral moment! ⚽🦆 Ducks like Merlin need specialized care, space, and a lifelong commitment. When the hype fades, many are abandoned.

A striker should score goals, NOT dead animals! Norway’s top player Erling Haaland's animal skin bag collection is a huge miss. Animals are violently killed so Hermès can turn them into bags. Corpses shouldn't be the trend he's setting.

EXTREME HEAT ISN'T SAFE FOR ANYONE! As @mayor.nyc.gov warns New Yorkers about dangerous heat, horses have still been seen forced to haul tourists despite the heat suspension 🔥💔 They shouldn't be forced to pull heavy carriages in dangerous temperatures—or at all.

Kylian, named after France national team legend Kylian Mbappé, came ready for World Cup action! This rescued kitten had his eyes and paws locked on his team. These bonded besties are hoping to score a loving home ❤️🥅 www.peta.vg/47zv

🚨 Badgers are killed to make brush bristles 🚨 An eyewitness found a worker dragging a badger from a cage before beating and stabbing them. Their hair is normally stolen for makeup, paint, and shaving brushes 💔 Fight for them NOW ⤵️ https://www.peta.vg/47yi
