The gruesome discovery of 31 homeless pets - allegedly killed in a "death van," stuffed into trash bags, and tossed into a dumpster by trusted employees of PeTA casts serious doubt on the legitimacy of the world's wealthiest animal rights organization. For 25 years, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals has relentlessly assaulted the medical research community with deceptive claims: To poison the public's support for responsible animal research and to raise money for its cause. Now even skeptics have to admit any credibility PeTA ever claimed in condemning biomedical research is lost. To us, a dumpster is no place for dogs and puppies.
