2. Legendary actor and activist James Cromwell was arrested at Texas A&M University during a PETA demonstration last week—but you don’t have to put your freedom on the line to make a difference for suffering dogs.

3. Watch PETA’s “crying mice” protest during a talk by the director of the National Institute of Mental Health, urging him to stop terrorizing animals in the forced swim test and other experiments that he’s admitted are useless.

5. Here’s more proof that PETA’s investigations and campaigns are ushering in a new era for science: The University of California–Riverside—the same school at which PETA exposed that experimenters had stitched shut the eyes of a monkey named Britches—is now developing groundbreaking non-animal tests using stem cells.
