ASPCA|Animal Rights

Recently Karma slapped the ASPCA pocketbook through an agreement to pay $9.3M to Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey circus to settle a 2007 lawsuit.

The ASPCA as well as several other animal rights groups including the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) had paid a circus employee $190,000 to 'gather' evidence that the circus was abusing elephants. The court did not find any credible evidence that elephants were being abused.

The real tragedy is how the ASPCA and other animal groups stopped being groups that actually care for abused and abandoned animals and instead became political lobbyists.

Neither the national ASPCA nor the HSUS give money to local groups. Ask your local group if you don't believe me.

If you want your money to go directly to care for unfortunate dogs give directly to your local animal shelter, SPCA or humane society.
