Are all PETA employees vegan?
Do I have to be vegetarian or vegan to work for PETA/FSAP? Some of our positions do require you to be vegan (e.g., all positions related to campaigns, fundraising and development, and media spokespeople). However, many roles do not require this. We look for compassionate people to work for the organization.
Does PETA have a Canadian office?
Does PETA have an office in Canada? Right now, we are unable to open an office in Canada, but we are quite active there and have a dedicated activist network. We frequently work with Canadian groups and organize numerous vegetarian, fur, circus, and other demonstrations in Canada, just as we do in the U.S.
Are PETA certified companies trustworthy?
PETA relies on a trust system for their certification process. Allowing companies to enter a market where animal testing actively occurs is irresponsible and not trustworthy. That being said, having a PETA certification is not an indication that all PETA certified companies are not trustworthy.
Is PETA 100\% cruelty-free in China?
The short answer – no. PETA is not a reliable resource for determining whether or not a company is 100\% cruelty-free. PETA states that all companies who are PETA certified and sell in China must withdraw their products if animal testing is set to occur. However, this method is based on a system of trust.
