PETA had a lamb (Bam-ba-Lam) The damn thing gone wild She said, "I'm worryin' outta mind" The damn thing gone blind
Amishplowboy
Looks like it was only partially tenderized, and undercooked

The website has some sweet Halloween decorations though!

Former PETA employee here. yep, they're always totally going for the shock factor. That being said the practice of Mulesing does exist.
TheRealMrDos
Peta had a little lamb...
Noodlesama
Do they think you get a blunt knife and just jam it into the sheep?!
bobjimbob
Wow! Great company. Love the ASIP roadkill.
BubblsErotica
Fuck PETA
squintish
Aren't lambs too young too shear anyway? They dont even have a full fleece. Even the ones that are slaughtered don't look like that.
jinko82
laverz
So what are they suggesting happens just leave them and not sheer them?
supersaiyanfirefighter
There's a business named dapper cadaver? Wtf
Sweetcharade83
Fuck PETA.
Munkee80
Damn, seems like PETA is becoming to animal rights as ISIS is to Islam.
Hristia
This is beyond stupid. I grew up on an island full of sheep. They NEED to be sheared, just like cows need to be milked.
allenCookieDiver
Please tell me they don’t think taking their wool kills them.
catscatscatscat
Actually this whole campaign was about mulesing, not shearing.
callmethelizardqueen
Saw a pic of freaks protesting at milk section of store about the murder of cows.
SteveMND
Think it does? No, of course not. Willing to make OTHERS think it does to pad their coffers with false-pretense cash? You better believe it.

Ok are we going to overlook the fact there's an entire website of fake wounded animals?!?!
MazdaMiata603
PETA is a political action committee whose primary mission is to engender sympathy to extract money. Picture doesn’t surprise me.
TAKEITEASYIMJUSTKIDDING
Dont these people watch Shaun the Sheep?!
tzxAzrael
How to shear a sheep, by PETA. Step one, grab your trusty machete. bang the cutting edge up on some rocks; don't want it to accidentally be
tzxAzrael
sharp, so you mistakenly do a clean job right?
tzxAzrael
Step tw--... what? what do you mean they use electric clippers these days? um, ok.. uh, maybe we re-shoot this with an electric chain saw?

Does anyone have the link for where i can find this on their site?
Gimlidwarf
Link in the description
rheem00
No the link to peta site where this is used
AHorticulturistIsJustANerdyGardener
It was an ad, originally. Google PETA lamb ad.
playstation360
Because why wouldn't PETA lie?
ConstableDuggins
You really think PETA would do something like that? Just go out there and tell lies?
playstation360
Only on the internet.
BladesOfGloryHole
Is it anatomically correct? Asking for a friend.

Is your friend from Scotland? Or New Zealand?

Mate of you're from New Zealand you know the anatomy of a sheep inside and out. Cos we fuck them.
Nightcaste
That's the joke.
EdgarWrong
Oh I see. Sorry misinterpretation.
motherFUCKINGdickbuttplayingwithJavert
You can do this to a sheep if you are a deliberate asshole that has a shitty razor and you rather have the sheep fuss and make things worse
catscatscatscat
Nah, this campaign is actually about mulesing.
Cypheri
Even if it were about mulesing, it's still misleading. No reason to show a mangled lamb when mulesing is a preventative care operation.
catscatscatscat
Ok friend, why are you commenting on all my comments? bit weird.
Cypheri
Probably because you're spamming everybody else on this page with irrelevant information. The prop is misleading, even about mulesing.
catscatscatscat
Not irrelevant man. I agree- it is misleading. It is also not about shearing which is not controversial in the slightest and by allowing 1/2
catscatscatscat
But also, it is actually a pretty controversial procedure in the field with a lot of viable alternatives.
ondrishko
You can buy a real lamb for cheaper then that and it would taste delicious
sabrinadent
Yes but it wouldn't be all bloody because that doesn't happen when you shear a real lamb.
MechaNinja
Why does it have six legs?
KimJongSpoon
Another one of PETA's lies.
MoonZinuM
Those are flaps of the skin that are torn hanging...
CottonTheClown
Well mother fuck... You're right
AdmiralCheesecake
It’s flaps of hanging shorn fleece to show how “gory and cruel” shearing sheep is.
WannabeHobo
It's a mutation because of our harmful urban radioactive mobile phone waves or something. Surprising how PETA hasn't made that up yet.
joc101
So thats a lie to? Where do they end and where does the truth start?
LuciusNeedful
Give it time.
1PunMan
Anyone that's spent five seconds in s shearing shed knows this doesn't happen.
ilovefluids
Anyone that spends 5 seconds in a restaurant knows that lamb is tasty af
daniePandaSmasher
Dude its so much more uncomfortable if they have to live througj the summer with full coats. Its nasty hot.
Linanz
Yeah bro. You’d be a shitty farmer if you treated your animals like that. Nicks happen sometimes but most farmers are careful.
Steffn
What about those shearers which have been pleaded guilty for animal cruelty because that happened?
Greeneyeddevil
I genuinely enjoy watching videos of shearing because a) the shearers are so skilled and gentle b) the sheep are so clearly obviously fine
BinkyTheToaster
I learned about shearing when I was 6, from a Sesame Street episode.
danishjuggler21

danishjuggler21
In short, I wonder how you’d like having the skin sliced off your ass for something that could be prevented with glorified bug spray
Cereaza
That's why the target for these images is people who know nothing, and are very gullible
Tastesicle
We had a couple bleed last shear. The guy was an ass, they weren't hot enough, a few had ticks, yada yada yada. Treat the nick and move on.
MegaDeuce
I heard farmers punch sheep in the head to make them more docile. I laughed out loud when I heard it, but is there any truth to that?
Tastesicle
None. A sheep would look at you like you're crazy and kick you. Grab with one hand under the chin and lift their heads up.
Tastesicle
The other hand grabs their wool and you can drag em into the shed. Shearer basically trips and flips them.
wysisntwyg
Nah mate, in NZ they shut right up after a good hard shag
chilliceyn
No truth. Would just piss them off and you'd have to chase them more. Lot of people use shear racks now anyways so they don't move much.
SuperHir0
Anyone with two neurons to rub together in their head knows shearing doesn't harm the animals.
1PunMan
Well hopefully the lone neurons see this.
callmethelizardqueen
Yep. That’s why so many fall for the propaganda.
catscatscatscat
Not to burst the bubble here but this campaign is actually about mulesing, not at all about shearing.
Cypheri
Mulesing, when done with proper veterinary care, is a practical preventative measure that keeps the animals from a much more painful fate.
catscatscatscat
At this point, it is a pretty old-fashioned procedure and quite controversial in the field actually. There are very viable alternatives.
Cypheri
The intradermal injections to kill the follicles are good, but dipping an animal in insecticide has much more far-reaching consequences.
catscatscatscat
I'm not really arguing for any procedure in particular. I just think if you're going to hate on something, do it with the right information.
ctennessen
I've never been in a shearing shed and even I know that's fake

SonOfKazar
My mom accidently sheared off a sheeps' dink when she was doing it for the first time.
ksmit3464
Oh yeah knew a guy who did it before fair weigh ins. Ended up sheering off a ball because it wasn't supposed to be there! 1/2
ksmit3464
2/2 Stitched it on u#p put some iodine on it, was good to go!
1PunMan
Man that'd hurt.
ohiohobbyzooadventures
Wait, don't you end up battered and bloody every time you get a haircut?
ensensu
You went to barber 47 and you might have pissed him off.
ohiohobbyzooadventures
I didn't tip, I guess that explains it
1PunMan
Only when the blade slips near my balls.
WillJeSuis
Don't even need to shear, if you know how hair is shaved, it's the same thing. This doesn't happen when you get your hair cut (guys).
Cypheri
I mean, worst case scenario you might get a small nick if you twitch wrong with an unguarded clipper near your ear.
1PunMan
Yeah, i understand that. But some people haven't been in a shearing shed and would just assume we're cruel to animals when we're not.
Elonth
there was also that time peta set up a fake sheering shoot where they had actors abuse real sheep in a fake "undercover" cam.
1PunMan
That's fucked.
thedarkcanuck
Like it's not like you can only get wool from a lamb once. Why would you damage something you're going to keep working with?
1PunMan
Exactly it mate.

I don't think people understand that farmers have the highest level of realism + empathy balance regarding animals as they raise them.
Jackattacksmackyourback
Thank you
namiasdf
If you really want to question their ethics, you have a long ways to go, than to make attacks on social media.
thedarkcanuck
Exactly. At the very least, they know that mistreating their animals only hurts their profits
namiasdf
It's beyond that. You are literally raising a living being. You think you can do that without some level of empathy? Animals have feelings.
zamielvanweber
Not entirely true. Father in law was a farmer, does not give a fuck about animals. Aunt was a farmer; refuses to eat veal. It is by person.
namiasdf
Yea, but does he purposely torture them and cause them unnecessary suffering? That's what PETA is painting with a wide brush.
zamielvanweber
I was responding to comment above. My FIL has no empathy for animals beyond them being a means to an end. He is not cruel or kind.
imnotokiedokie
Because obv i just wake up every morning and want to torture animals. PETA knows what's up and he's onto me
LickLickLickMyBalls2
imnotokiedokie
PETA how dare you!
thedarkcanuck
Especially when they're your own animals right? Boy I love making the ones I love suffer
imnotokiedokie
Totally. I wake up and caffeinate by kicking my sheep in the neck. And thats after i bodyslam my grandmother.
Spacespudinc
Lmao, you get your upvote
spicerfacts
They had to use a prop because literally no sheep looks like that after you shear it
Otomasoteraph
unless you shear it with a chainsaw
Gibbynz
How to make profit according to PETA: shear your sheep to the point of injury.
DominickDickerson
This same line of logic is used against modern agriculture ALL.THE.TIME. nonsensical but how else can you sell “organic” @ 2x the price?
mckenna310
No sheep looks like that in general lol.
manicmalki
Sheep look happy and tidy when sheared. They also look like the end of a nasty qtip when not sheared.
txsgem82
Nor are lambs sheared.. they are too young/small to have enough wool to be worth shearing.
Tastesicle
^^ This. Lambs this young (supposed to be what, a couple months by the model here?) wouldn't get sheared for any reason.
39823432
That's so scummy by PETA to mislead people
ErrorUsernameNotSetToInstanceofAnObject
PETA itself is scummy. It's a nexus of scum.
Jokeykilla
Honestly PETA is all about the money. They kill 90% oftl their rescued animals if I remember correctly.
lysani
You're a little low on those numbers actually. They had less than a 1% adoption rate a few years back.
CouldBeADickPic9000
Not really surprised that it was a prop
alpacasaurusrex
Not even a convincing one. If you really wanna horrify, show the video of the chinese murdering blue foxes. That is... nightmareish.
Akreyeiu
Is it weird that I could tell in the original picture that it wasn't a live animal? It looked hollow, and I don't mean physically.
AntaNce
would equally not be surprised if PETA actually mutilated an animal for a photo, just sayin'
TheBestRussian
Also explains the 6 legs
alpacasaurusrex
I think that's the "nonsheared" wool they want you to assume some assmunch didn't remove. Idk tho.
TheBestRussian
It is. I was making a dumb joke.
alpacasaurusrex
I'm not a smart woman sometimes. XD
TinySupreme
Unless you're a retarded monkey fucking a football lambs don't look like this after you shear them lol.
Tastesicle
Hey... what do you have against fucking footballs? Where did I put my banana? What are we talking about again?
ThomasMontgomeryHaverford
Well... sort of. Most shearing is fine, but there are certainly documented abuses in the industry. And mulesing does literally remove skin.
OriginalNameDoNotSteal
Wouldn't put it passed PETA to "try" shearing, just to hurt an animal to "prove a point"
catscatscatscat
Actually this campaign is about mulesing.
Bassemuss
Well then the campaingn went off target, I have never heard/see this prop without references to just the klipping. Wtf is mulesing btw
catscatscatscat
Sure did - everyone assumes so which is a pretty obvious thing to be against.
catscatscatscat
Mulesing is a sort of controversial procedure in animal husbandry. They surgically remove some skin from the rear to prevent flystrike.
Bassemuss
I knit (a lot!). And just spent my morning looking up every brand of wool I use. luckyli its all good.
shugies
Agreed, I dont think Peta would intentionally find a suffering lamb to use for their marketing campaign.
commentsectiontrafficcop
Peta so would. Sadly. You should look into them. They're kinda bad nowadays.
TrueItaliano
Oh you’d be aurprised
AngryFennec
It's not that they wouldnt, its that they dont exist to find, the peta ad claimed this the result of shearing & this damage does not happen
Steffn
But it does, there have been convictions...
Sasuuni
Oh they definitely would. I'm almost surprised they didn't beat the shit out of one first to get the real deal.
PoliticalAutisticScreeching
Yeah that wouldn't surprise me. FUCK PETA.
ThomasMontgomeryHaverford
Just curious: do you have evidence to support that or are you fear-mongering?
ThomasMontgomeryHaverford
Also, I find the solid down-voting of a simple request for evidence quite telling as to this comment's true motivation.
Sasuuni
"Do you have evidence?" Is a simple request for evidence, you showed your bias with the fear-mongering bit.
Sasuuni
Found the PETA activist. There's plenty of evidence online, go look it up if you're bothered.. or don't. I don't care.
ThomasMontgomeryHaverford
Nope, don't really support them. And I've seen a lot of claims about PETA, but nothing supporting what you said.
