Este assunto e imagens tem sido muito debatido no forum dos direitos dos animais e seria lá que deveria estar...
As imagens são realmente chocantes, mas sabendo que quem produziu o video foi a PETA eque a mesma entidade, não olha a meios para atingir os seus fins, que mata animais em vez de arranjar quem os adopte, que é contra termos animais e estimação, que a lider acha que todas as mulheres deveriam submeter a cirugia, para acabar com a raça humana como ela fez, sabendo que a PETA é contra a pesquisa em animais, mesmo que isso segnifique que se pode obter a cura para certas doenças tanto para os animais como para nós, sabendo que os activistas da PETA se estão vivos é porque foram vacinados e que essas vacinas resultam da pesquisa em animais.
Por tudo isto eu questino a veracidade das imagens, assim como de que época foram colhidas ou feitas em estudio?? Infelizmente existe crueldade para com os animais, mas a nivel de animais de consumo em Portugal, tem havido muita mudança no sentido positivo e espero que continue. Quanto ás peles, estes animais que são criados para o mercado das peles, se fossem criados e mortos como no video, a pele não teria qualidade...um vison ou uma marta para dar uma pele de boa qualidade, tem de ser criado sem stress e em boas condições ou o pêlo não tem qualidade para o comercio eu não uso peles, mas se o animal só nasceu e cresceu saudavel porque o criador interviu e o manteve saudavel com esse proposito, não sinto menos pena desse animal do que de uma galinha que aparece no prato de quase todos vós, afinal uma galinha é tanto animal como um vison ou uma marta.

7 Things You Didn't Know About PETA
1) PETA president and co-founder Ingrid Newkirk has described her group’s overall goal as “total animal liberation.” This means no meat, no milk, no zoos, no circuses, no wool, no leather, no hunting, no fishing, and no pets (not even seeing-eye dogs). PETA is also against all medical research that requires the use of animals.
2) Despite its constant moralizing about the “unethical” treatment of animals by restaurant owners, grocers, farmers, scientists, anglers, and countless other Americans, PETA has killed over 14,400 dogs and cats at its Norfolk, Virginia headquarters. During 2005, PETA put to death over 90 percent of the animals it collected from members of the public.
3) PETA has given tens of thousands of dollars to convicted arsonists and other violent criminals. This includes a 2001 donation of $1,500 to the North American Earth Liberation Front (ELF), an FBI-certified “domestic terrorist” group responsible for dozens of firebombs and death threats. During the 1990s, PETA paid $70,200 to an Animal Liberation Front (ALF) activist convicted of burning down a Michigan State University research laboratory. In his sentencing recommendation, a federal prosecutor implicated PETA president Ingrid Newkirk in that crime. And PETA vegetarian campaign coordinator Bruce Friedrich told an animal rights convention in 2001 that “blowing stuff up and smashing windows” is “a great way to bring about animal liberation.”
4) PETA activists regularly target children as young as six years old with anti-meat and anti-milk propaganda, often waiting outside their schools to intercept them as they walk to and from class-without notifying parents. One piece of kid-targeted PETA literature tells small children: “Your Mommy Kills Animals!” PETA brags that its messages reach over 2 million children every year, including thousands reached by e-mail without the permission of their parents. One PETA vice president told the Fox News Channel’s audience: “Our campaigns are always geared towards children, and they always will be.”
5) PETA has used a related organization, the PETA Foundation, to fund the misnamed Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM), a deceptive animal rights group that promotes itself as an unbiased source of medical and nutritional information. PCRM's president also serves as president of the PETA Foundation.
6) PETA runs campaigns seemingly calculated to offend religious believers. One entire PETA website is devoted to the claim-despite ample evidence to the contrary-that Jesus Christ was a vegetarian. PETA holds protests at houses of worship, even suing one church that tried to protect its members from Sunday-morning harassment. Its billboards taunt Christians with the message that hogs “died for their sins.” PETA insists, contrary to centuries of rabbinical teaching, that the Jewish ritual of kosher slaughter shouldn't be allowed. And its infamous “Holocaust on Your Plate” campaign crassly compares the Jewish victims of Nazi genocide with farm animals.
7) PETA has repeatedly attacked research foundations like the March of Dimes, the Pediatric AIDS Foundation, and the American Cancer Society, because they support animal-based research that might uncover cures for birth defects and life-threatening diseases. PETA president Ingrid Newkirk has said that “even if animal research resulted in a cure for AIDS, we would be against it.”
