Besides taking themselves too seriously, they also give vegetarianism and the concept of animal welfare a bad name.
I'd rather put my money to PAWS than a religious cult.
PETA euthanizes thousands of animals per year according to Google.
That ain't enough. They go to schools and try to convert kids.
PETA operates a kill shelter of last resort in Virginia, where they take in dogs who were next up to be euthanized at other kill shelters to make one more last ditch effort at addressing their issues and finding them homes. This is a service that would not exist if not for PETA, but since they're a last resort their success numbers are very low, like less than 40%. That amounts to hundreds of animals saved every year, but that hasn't stopped animal ag from taking the euthanasia totals out of context for years.
There's lots of information about the Norfolk shelter online for those willing to fact check.
