Cantwell, Alaska – Under, please discover a assertion from PETA Govt Vice President Tracy Reiman in response to disgraced Iditarod musher Dallas Seavey’s announcement {that a} snowmachine struck canine being educated by his kennel, killing two and leaving others in vital situation:
Dallas Seavey can now add these canine’ traumatic accidents and horrific deaths to a document that already included racing canine who examined constructive for opioids, working a kennel accused of killing canine who didn’t make the grade, and proudly owning a property the place a whistleblower reported discovering dying puppies. When mushers like Seavey search Iditarod glory, canine pay the worth with their lives, and PETA is asking for this race to finish earlier than the dying depend rises any greater.
PETA—whose motto reads, partially, that “animals aren’t ours to make use of for leisure”—opposes speciesism, a human-supremacist worldview.
