    I’m vegan, and I do honestly think that PETA get a bad rap for their animal shelter work, but their online presence is ridiculous and cringe and it doesn’t surprise me at all that they get ripped to shreds constantly.

    I assume Peta just wants to be in the news? The Sly Old Fox is not an offensive name.

      PETA’s only deal is raising awareness about the existence of PETA.

    Well I hope Ms Allen can untwist her knickers and realize what she is asking is stupid as fuck and not harmful to animals in any capacity.

    Not that I agree with PETA anyway but this does not help animals in the slightest. It’s a waste of funds that could be better spent elsewhere to actually benefit animals.

      I don’t understand, sly has the definition of “Clever or cunning, especially in the practice of deceit.”
      What’s the issue with saying a fox is sneaky and deceiving?

    They should change the name to the Sly Old Foxtrot Oscar then.
