    I don't have a link from HSUS handy, but I have seen some very negative quotes floating around from the CEO of HSUS.
    While I do agree that PETA is a radical group with mixed up priorities, I don't think that the spay/neuter movement is an attempt to eradicate domesticated animals. As someone who volunteers at local animal shelters, I am also strongly against breeding cats and dogs (with a few exceptions). Of course with snakes there is still a higher demand than supply, so that's a different matter, though they may not see it that way. All I'm saying is that while I think PETA takes things way too far, their claims are not necessarily unfounded.
