PETA2 is the teen PETA, fyi. - Image 1

We never knew about the teen branch of PETA, so we were surprised to hear about the existence of PETA2 and their sweet giveaway. Luckily, it says nothing about becoming a member of PETA (as far as we know).

The folks at PETA2 found a strange congruence between their daily activities and the demo version of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. In the demo, you actually get to free monkeys from cages. In the real world, PETA's commemorating the first anniversary of their undercover investigation into the Covance research labs, which brings this about.

All you have to do is fill up their form, make sure you're at least 13, and hope you win. Just make sure you check the terms and conditions before you join, or you could just be signing up to lose. In any case, we hope one of our faithful readers gets their fifteen minutes of fame courtesy of animals' best friends, mostly because they have the best banners we've ever seen on their site. Good luck!

Not worth it.

Sorry, but I'd rather sell my Wii than try to win a game from a bunch of semi-terrorists like PETA. Thanks.

I read Redwall and advocate responsible pet ownership...

But PETA is... I am from Iowa where our state fair PETA shirts say People for the Eating of Tasty Animals. I know that is insensitive to the beliefs of animal rights activists, but if they have a right to believe in the rights of animals, I think that people like FreePlay have a right to comment against PETA (and I am mature enough to admit my bias: I agree with you, FreePlay - sometimes the need to use animals for medical testing seems to outweigh the animal rights of pigs and monkeys - and the violent means that some animal activists use is still violent, harmful, and evil - if they dislike the necessary evil of animal testing, then we have a right to dislike the necessary evil of violence, right?).
