You’re wrong about PETA | The nonprofit is a punchline. It’s also forced the world to face factory farming, animal cruelty, and our own hypocrisy (www.vox.com)

It's not like PETA's kill rate is a secret; their statistics have been public knowledge for years, and they've never tried to obfuscate that. If other shelters are sending their animals to PETA, they understand it's almost certainly for the purpose of euthanasia, and those shelters don't want that reflected in their own numbers, but in these cases they also understand that the alternative is a worse outcome for the animal.
