Tell VIVAZEN: There’s Nothing Zen About the Deadly Iditarod! Urge VIVAZEN to reconsider its future association with the cruel Iditarod.

The Iditarod forces dogs to run about 1,000 miles through extreme conditions in Alaska, often pushing them to exhaustion, injury, and even death 💔 The race just added a new sponsor, VIVAZEN. Urge them to rethink their future support and help end this cruelty. www.peta.vg/46kt

As long as humans keep drinking milk meant for baby cows, calves will keep being taken from their mothers. Don’t support this cold-hearted industry.

Dogs deserve better than the suffering and death they face on the Iditarod trail. If you agree, help us urge businesses to reconsider ties with the Iditarod👇

These photos were taken at the start of the 2026 Iditarod, where dogs are forced into a nearly 1,000-mile race through freezing storms. For some, this pointless race may even cost them their lives.

2026 is the perfect year to 𝘩𝘰𝘱 𝘰𝘯 𝘣𝘰𝘢𝘳𝘥: there’s no better way to celebrate the country’s 250th anniversary than by replacing an English bulldog with an American bullfrog!

Hop to it, Butler 🐸 After announcing the retirement of live bulldog mascot Blue IV for health reasons, @butleru.bsky.social has a chance to 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘱 𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘥. Bulldogs’ smushed snouts make breathing difficult, so it’s time to 𝘧𝘦𝘵𝘤𝘩 a new tradition: a willing human Butler Bullfrog! bit.ly/4sAqWqQ

The Cardens have since leased Betty to a roadside zoo in Indiana, where she is being used for public photo ops💔 We're still fighting to get her released to an accredited sanctuary where she will finally receive the medical care and rest she desperately needs.

Monkey Imports Deliver Death to Endangered Monkeys The secretive monkey importation industry for U.S. laboratories exploits endangered monkeys and threatens public health.

This photo is part of a multi-year archive that EXPOSES this industry, which is entrenched in violence & supplies U.S. laboratories.

This endangered monkey should be swinging through trees & living with family in nature, yet he's imprisoned, waiting to be sent to a lab as a part of Cambodia’s monkey smuggling industry 💔
 
This NEVER should have happened to him. He deserves so much better.

Whether they were trapped in the wild or confined on a fur farm, every piece of fur caused intense suffering and ended a life. Vintage or not, fur will never be ethical.

Take a stand and sign PETA’s fur-free pledge today 👉 https://www.peta.vg/46j6

If this looks wrong, it's because it is.

​The Iditarod is no different. Dogs are pushed to run in extreme conditions until their bodies give out, and more than 150 have died in the race.

For decades, PETA Founder Ingrid Newkirk has led protests that challenge industries built on animal suffering. She continues to demand change today. This #InternationalWomensDay, we celebrate women who fight for animals ✊💗

Watch this mother run after her baby as they are separated 💔

On #InternationalWomensDay, remember: the dairy industry runs on the bodies and recurring heartbreak of females who are forcibly impregnated repeatedly, and have their babies taken so their milk can be sold to humans.

Listen In to the PETA Podcast | PETA The PETA Podcast gives you behind-the-scenes access to the group's philosophy, victories, and everything that makes the organization impossible to ignore.

A baby monkey was taken from their mother and tossed into a cooler while still ALIVE at the @uofwa.uw.edu primate center‘s breeding center— a critical animal welfare violation.

You NEED to hear what’s happening inside these labs on the #PETAPodcast 🎙️ https://www.peta.vg/46jf

The Iditarod’s Ceremonial Start celebrates forcing dogs to run for days across dangerous terrain and in extreme weather, often resulting in great suffering and even death. If the Iditarod was honest about what dogs go through, this would be a vigil 💔

The egg industry sells “cage-free” as ethical, but our white paper documents stressed hens packed so tightly they fight, peck, and cannibalize each other because there’s nowhere to escape 💔

When PETA met Cash in 2021, he was chained, hungry, and afraid. We kept showing up—earning his trust, replacing his chain with a tie-out runner, and building a doghouse. Now he barks with joy when our van arrives 💙 We’ll keep showing up for him.

At the Iditarod’s Anchorage headquarters, we brought the specter of death because up to half the dogs don’t finish the race due to illness, injury, or exhaustion.

A child could have easily died after being attacked while feeding lions at a sleazy zoo in China. Incidents like this show why we need protection for big cats, yet roadside zoo owners and traveling wild animal acts are pushing Congress to undo them.
