The success of our affiliates’ campaigns against mulesing in conjunction with Australians’ demand for information on animal protection issues prompted the establishment of PETA Australia. PETA Australia works through public education, cruelty investigations, research, legislation, celebrity involvement and protest campaigns.

A priest compares bullfights to Jesus Christ's "sacrifice on the cross."
Another says the killing of a bull in the arena is "not violent."
PETA is calling on Pope Leo XIV to cut the Church’s ties to bullfighting.

Victoria University of Wellington has confirmed that it has stopped using the forced swim test on animals, a cruel and scientifically dubious experiment that forces animals to endure the terror of near-drowning under the false assumption that it can model human depression.

No animal should be terrorised in a laboratory. 💙🐭

A cruel, outdated animal experiment has been scrapped at a major university.

Mother’s Day is a time to celebrate the unbreakable bonds that form in the womb (or egg) and grow throughout our lives. It’s not just about brunch and blooms – it’s also a chance to show respect to mothers of all species. 💗

Behind closed laboratory doors in Australia, animals are being subjected to experiments funded by the US Department of War.

Pigs, sheep and rats faced painful experiments at Australian institutions.

Does beating sheep sound “ethical” to you? H&M Group claimed that by the end of 2025, all of their virgin wool and animal hair would come from “farms certified to a credible animal welfare standard,” such as the Responsible Wool Standard and NATIVA wool standard, but are sheep used for “certified” wool actually treated better than others?

PETA Asia went undercover at a farm that sells NATIVA wool, which is “the leading brand for responsibly sourced, 100% traceable natural fibers.” Investigators found it is no different from any other humane-washing marketing scheme. They rely on buzzwords like “responsible” and “traceable” as animals suffer.

Now, PETA has released the investigative footage that NATIVA wool certifiers and buyers would never want you to see. The video is a must-watch for anyone who thinks there’s such a thing as “responsible” or ethical wool. Watch now:

Pigeons mate for life.
They share parenting duties.
They make group decisions and navigate vast distances together.
They’re not objects.
They’re not disposable.
And they never chose to be part of war.
🕊️ Read why pigeons—symbols of peace—deserve compassion, not cruelty.

Imagine if our Anzacs, veterans of war, soldiers who fought for Australia, were tossed aside after their homecoming and left to live on the streets.

"Real conservation doesn’t kill, and wildlife will never be protected when you put a price tag on their heads while parading their skins on catwalks." 👏👏👏

Donny Imberlong shared his testimony ahead of LVMH’s annual general meeting in Paris today.

Animal shelters are bursting at the seams, and every time a breeder sells a puppy, a dog waiting in an animal shelter or struggling to survive on the streets loses a chance at finding a loving home.

In a new campaign for PETA, the guys in Melrose Avenue are calling on everyone to be an angel for animals by always adopting and never buying animals from pet shops or breeders.

They’ve also invited peta2 to join them on tour. If you’re at a US gig, make a pit stop at the peta2 table to say hi! 💙🐶

Limiting non-essential travel might be necessary, but animal flesh is not. So doesn’t it make sense to prioritise ending fuel-intensive slaughterhouse traffic?

Animal Agriculture is unnecessary and fuel-guzzling. Going vegan can ease the petrol crisis.
