By Capt. Paul Watson's count there are 56 orcas being held in concrete prisons. And 163 who have died over the years. After 50 years at sea saving marine mammals, Watson's written a new book that essentially registers all the animals who are currently enslaved by amusement parks like Sea World. He talks about what's being done and how you can help, simply by not going to SeaWorld. In conversation with Emil Guillermo.

Watson's book. co-authored by Tiffany Humphrey is "Orcapedia," published by Groundswell Books.

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.

The Research Modernization Deal, RMD, is a new way forward for scientists and animals developed by the scientists at PETA. Intended to change the paradigm on the use of animals in experimentation, RMD is a common-sense strategy necessitated by the 90 percent failure rate of research involving animals to produce anything of value for humans. PETA's Dr.Emily Trunnell with the Laboratory Investigations Department is part of the team trying to make RMD a reality. She tells Emil Guillermo the program is as simple as stopping everything that doesn't work or produce real results and shifting money and emphasis to non-animal experiments that would have a better chance at success.

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.
