About me:


Ingrid Newkirk's new book,
One Can Make a Difference




My latest book, One Can Make a Difference: How Simple Actions Can Change the World, is an enlightening roadmap for anyone who seeks a just society and strives to make a positive impact on our world. Order it today on PETACatalog.org!


I am the cofounder and president of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, the largest animal rights organization in the world. PETA believes that animals deserve the most basic rights—consideration of their own best interests regardless of whether they are useful to humans. Like you, they are capable of suffering and have interests in living their own lives; therefore, they are not ours to use—for food, clothing, entertainment, experimentation, or for any other reason. I recently addressed the International Nonviolence Conference in Bethlehem—it was the first time nonviolence toward animals had been formally included in what have always been "humans only" conference agendas. Click here to watch a video of this speech and here to learn how you too can speak up for animals. For more information, check out IngridNewkirk.com. If you have any questions, please e-mail info@peta.org.

Invisible Animals Listen as I tell my life-changing experiences learning about the fascinating characteristics, abilities, and emotions of animals that most never notice because they are invisible to us. Listen here!

    I will vote no On isssue two in Ohio!!!
    1. Issue 2 seeks to stop animal welfare improvements. Agribusiness interests are trying to change the Ohio constitution so they can continue cruel and inhumane practices on factory farms—confining animals in tiny cages and crates so small they can’t even turn around. Issue 2 proposes an industry-dominated power grab to protect the status quo: hens crammed into cages so tightly they can’t even spread their wings, breeding pigs confined in tiny barren crates and calves chained by their necks inside veal crates. We wouldn’t force our pets to live in filthy, cramped cages for their whole lives, and we shouldn’t force farm animals to either. All animals, including those raised for food, deserve humane treatment.
    2. Issue 2 threatens our food safety and health. Factory farmers have put our health at risk by recklessly telling us that it’s okay to keep animals in overcrowded, inhumane conditions. Cramming tens of thousands of animals into tiny cages fosters the spread of animal diseases that may affect people. For example, the American Journal of Epidemiology reported that people who eat eggs from hens confined in cages are 250% more likely to contract Salmonella. The extreme confinement of animals is also a major factor in the emergence of diseases like H5N1 and H1N1 (bird and swine flu). Passing Issue 2 would be bad for animals—and bad for us.
    3. Issue 2 favors large factory farms, not Ohio’s family famers. Family farmers and groups like the Ohio Farmers Union and Family Farm Defenders oppose Issue 2 because they know that food quality and safety are

    Hi Ingrid Newkirk

    10/22 Thurs. of the stray black dog, the one whose best friend, another black male dog was murdered

    10/22 Thurs. of the stray black dog, the one whose best friend, another black male dog was murdered

    Update: Stray black dog who's friend was murdered by hit & run truck

    Pictures I took today 10/22 Thurs. of the stray black dog whose best friend, another black male dog was purposely run over & killed by someone a white truck couple months ago in front of me & this dog who lost the only living thing he ever let near him. I took the pics through my front window screen, he's a lot further than it looks.

    He's eating a bowl of kibbles & bits in front my house, always takes the food out the bowl & puts it on the ground before eating it. We built a cover over the bowl so the food doesn't spoil in rain, still won't come in garage to eat.

    Little guy's gone underground, we think he stays under a small bridge that goes over a running stream that's partly on our property. He still hangs out in the cow pasteur across the road too. My husband says there's small hollow caves, nooks & crannies where he can protect himself from bad weather under the bridge.

    He's not skinny anymore & is eating the food we put out for him daily. We still try to coax him but he runs like a wild coyote, he's become wilder.

    My friends here followed this story since the other dog
