(Originally published April 28,  2021).

De-clawing is no manicure, it's big-cat mutilation. Yet despite general condemnation, some animal exhibits like tiger cub photo op encounters still de-claw animals. 

Now, after PETA sued a vet, Rick Pelphrey, and a show runner, Tim Stark, a breakthrough.

Last week in Indiana, a judge created a legal precedent that makes de-clawing a violation of the Endangered Species Act. 

PETA's Brittany Peet says it should have the effect of stopping declawing.

Plainville Farms in Pennsylvania touted itself as a place that raised "certified humane" turkeys. But a PETA investigator got the truth on video tape: Workers kicking, choking, strangling turkeys. Workers simulating sexual acts with the birds. All in all, the video was enough to get Pennsylvania State Police to get prosecutors in six counties to file the most defendants with the most charges ever in a case of cruelty to factory farmed animals. Dan Paden, PETA VP of Evidence Analysis, breaks down the case in conversation with Emil Guillermo on the PETA podcast.

See what the investigator saw.

Take action against grocers like Harris Teeter, Publix, and Wegmans that sell Plainville Farms products. See the video at PETA.org.

PETA veterinarian Dr. Heather Rally speaks with host Emil Guillermo about how she toured rabbit farms in China with fashion execs. What they saw was jaw-dropping cruelty to the animals who were used to source the clothing firms angora garments. The tour opened the eyes of the execs who changed their policy. But the supplier/farms continue to do business with other companies who look the other way and use the rabbits to make angora clothing.

Don't condone the cruelty. Take action now.

Listen to Dr. Rally's eyewitness account. Then see for yourselves. 

Look at the PETA Reveals video on PETA.org.

Tell companies to stop using angora. And as a consumer, use your power and don't buy angora products.

You have a choice this winter.

The animals don't.

Amber Canavan of PETA campaigns talks with host Emil Guillermo about California's Prop. 12, approved by voters on election day with more than 60 percent of the vote. But while Prop. 12 appears to set a minimum standard for space for animals in factory farms, it doesn't rule out abuse and cruelty for animals raised for food.

Canavan talks about what could have made a stronger Prop. 12 and how its minimum space provisions won't end cramped quarters for the animals.

And it doesn't end cruelty. 

You can vote every day for the animals every time you have a meal--if you go vegan.

After a six-year fight, PETA already forced the shutdown of a cruel dog lab at Texas A&M, but the school wouldn't release the remaining dogs.

All that changed last week (Nov. 4) when PETA got assurances from Texas A&M that nine Golden Retrievers--the last remnants of that cruel canine muscular dystrophy lab--will be freed by the end of the year.

Dr.Alka Chandna, PETA VP for Laboratory Investigations talks with Emil Guillermo about how the case was won, and what the victory means in the fight to end animal experimentation.
