Vegetarian Star

Charla Nash, the woman who’s face was mauled by the Travis the Chimp was on Oprah recently where she revealed how she looks months after the attack.

Some might find the video hard to watch, but pictures like these may be the only motivation to convince people that wild animals like chimpanzees don’t belong in housing developments.

Travis, the star in Old Navy and Coca Cola commercials lived with his owner and attacked Charla one day, refusing to let her go until he was shot by police.

Our thoughts go out to Charla and we congratulate her for her strength and bravery that’s helped her move forward since the incident.

Tony Gonzalez October Gonzalez for PETA

Tony Gonzalez and his wife October Gonzalez are starring in a new anti-fur ad that’s so hot, it will knock the hairs off your own body!

After shooting the ad, Tony and October sat down to discuss the effects of a plant based diet on their health and the animals.

“What goes on in the industry, the treatment of animals is just ridiculous,” Tony says.

“They pump them full of hormones, they feed them corn-which is not their natural diet.”

“These animals are miserable from the second they are born to the second they die,” October adds.

“We have a voice. And that’s why we’re doing something like this…If enough people stand up and say something about it, it will end,” Tony says.

Watch the clip for more and scenes from the photo shoot!

Saturday Night Live recently poked fun of Sarah McLachlan and the ASPCA commercials where her song “Angel” is the soundtrack behind some disturbing facts about animal cruelty.

“You agreed we weren’t going to talk about those creepy ASPCA commercials,” anchor Seth Meyers said.

The “Sarah” begins to sing Angel while pictures of dogs are shown in the background with facts like “this dog’s house is in foreclosure.”

It might be offensive, but hey, this clip is still giving the ASPCA publicity and that’s a great thing!

Earlier we brought you the news that famed TV doc Dr. Oz challenged a meat loving cowboy to go on a vegan diet.

Rocco took the challenge and 28 days later lost 6 inches from his waistline, lowered his blood sugar from dangerously high 172 to 99 and raised his good HDL cholesterol.

Watch the “after” video of Rocco and Dr. Oz discussing the results.

“I have an eating disorder,” Rocco said. “Nobody’s out to save fat guys.”

“If I can do it, anybody can do it,” Rocco said.

Rocco said he tried meat after his challenge, but it just wasn’t the same.

We hope the new “difference” will help keep Rocco away from the animals for the rest of his long, healthy life!

One Republic front man Ryan Tedder would like to teach you a little bit about birth control.

Don’t worry, this talk shouldn’t be as embarrassing as the one mom and dad had with you because it only involves your four legged children.

“I was shocked to find out that 6-8 million animals are dumped in overcrowded shelters each year,” Tedder says.  “And half of them are euthanized because there aren’t enough good homes.”

Take Ryan’s advice and get your next pet from a shelter before it’s too late to apologize to the 3-4 million animals that never find homes.

Don’t forget to spay and neuter.
