    PETA Lobsters

    http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/404823-peta-asks-for-tombstone-for-lobsters-killed-in-maine-truck PETA asks for tombstone for lobsters killed in Maine truck crash BY JUSTIN WISE - 09/03/18 12:25 PM EDT 313 1,714 People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has reportedly asked Maine to place a tombstone in the state in memory of the thousands of lobsters that were killed in a truck crash. The Brunswick Police Department told ABC News that a truck full of lobsters rolled over onto the side of the road last month. The truck was carrying about 4,500 lobsters, The Portland Press reported. In response to the incident, PETA asked the state for permission to place 5-foot-tall granite tombstone at the site of the crash, according to ABC News. The network noted that PETA made the request in a letter sent to the state's Department of Transportation last week. “I'm writing to ask for your approval to place a 5-foot-tall tombstone memorial along Route 1 in Brunswick, just after the exit for Cook's Corner, as a tribute to the lobsters who suffered and died when the truck transporting them rolled over last week,” said PETA’s Director Danielle Katz, ABC News reported. Amber Canavan, a spokeswoman for PETA, also told the network that the tombstone wouldn't be allowed on a particular section of the road that they were aiming for. "So we wrote a letter right back asking where nearby we might be allowed to place it,” Canavan told ABC News. “And we have not heard back from them yet.” But Fox 11 reported on Sunday that the Maine Department of Transportation had denied the request because the location in which the accident occurred is “controlled-access highway." PETA said that they still plan to continue their efforts to erect a monument in the lobsters' honor.

    Speaking of Flies!

    I posted this a couple of years ago and thought someone on here tied flies but we never got that to work out for some reason! I am looking for a long shank brown woolly worm fly with a gold band around it. The image below only represents the band look and in no way represents what I am looking for otherwise! Anybody out there make or know somebody that can make a brown woolly worm with a gold band?

    Animal crackers' animals "freed"

    https://www.cbsnews.com/news/barnum-animal-crackers-box-nabisco-mondelez-international-boxes-get-new-look-animals-freed/ After more than a century behind bars, the beasts on boxes of animal crackers are roaming free. Mondelez International, the parent company of Nabisco, has redesigned the packaging of its Barnum's Animals crackers after relenting to pressure from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. PETA, which has been protesting the use of animals in circuses for more than 30 years, wrote a letter to Mondelez in the spring of 2016 calling for a redesign. "Given the egregious cruelty inherent in circuses that use animals and the public's swelling opposition to the exploitation of animals used for entertainment, we urge Nabisco to update its packaging in order to show animals who are free to roam in their natural habitats," PETA said in its letter. Mondelez agreed and started working on a redesign. In the meantime, the crackers' namesake circus - Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey - folded for good. The 146-year-old circus, which had removed elephants from its shows in 2016 because of pressure from PETA and others, closed down in May 2017 due to slow ticket sales. Aug. 20, 2018, photo shows boxes of Nabisco's Barnum's Animals crackers in Chicago with former design AP The redesign of the boxes, now on U.S. store shelves, retains the familiar red and yellow coloring and prominent "Barnum's Animals" lettering. But instead of showing the animals in cages - implying that they're traveling in boxcars for the circus - the new boxes feature a zebra, elephant, lion, giraffe and gorilla wandering side-by-side in a grassland. The outline of acacia trees can be seen in the distance. "When PETA reached out about Barnum's, we saw this as another great opportunity to continue to keep this brand modern and contemporary," said Jason Levine, Mondelez's chief marketing officer for North America, in a statement. Mondelez is based in Illinois, which passed a statewide ban on circuses with elephants that went into effect in January. More than 80 U.S. cities have fully or partially banned circuses with wild animals, according to Animal Defenders International. PETA Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman says she's celebrating the box redesign for the cultural change it represents. "The new box for Barnum's Animals crackers perfectly reflects that our society no longer tolerates the caging and chaining of wild animals for circus shows," she said. Nabisco has been making Barnum's Animals crackers since 1902. It has redesigned its boxes before, but only for limited-time special editions. In 1995, it offered an endangered species collection that raised money for the World Wildlife Fund. In 1997, it offered a zoo collection that raised money for the American Zoo and Aquarium Association. And in 2010, it worked with designer Lilly Pulitzer on a pastel-colored box that raised money for tiger conservation. The company won't say how many boxes it sells each year. Canadian boxes already had a different design and aren't affected.
