Ahead of Ash Wednesday (February 14), PETA supporters will hand out free Good Catch vegan tuna fish in the heart of Milwaukee\u2019s East Side to urge everyone to prevent fish from being impaled, suffocated, and gutted\u2014all for a fleeting taste of their flesh\u2014during the Lenten season. The giveaway coincides with the group\u2019s new sky-high appeal going up near FreshFin Pok\u00e9 and other fishy eateries to urge would-be restaurantgoers to keep all animals off their plates during Lent and\u2014for cod\u2019s<\/em> sake\u2014throughout the rest of the year.<\/p>\n

\u201cFish are intelligent, complex individuals who feel pain and fear, just as all God\u2019s creatures do,\u201d says PETA Vice President Daniel Paden. \u201cPETA\u2019s giveaway will get people hooked<\/em> on delicious vegan fare that makes it easy to show mercy to animals during this period of self-reflection and beyond.\u201d<\/p>\n

Animals aren\u2019t mentioned in Genesis 1:29, which states that God provides \u201cevery seed-bearing plant\u201d and \u201cevery tree whose fruit contains seed\u201d as food for humans. Fish are smart, social animals who share knowledge, have cultural traditions, and communicate with one another using low-frequency sounds that humans can\u2019t hear. Some woo potential partners by singing to them or creating intricate works of art. Despite this, more fish are killed for food each year than all other animals combined. In addition, 38 million tons<\/em> of other aquatic animals, such as dolphins, whales, and sea turtles, are unintentionally caught each year to satisfy humans\u2019 demand for seafood.<\/p>\n

PETA\u2019s billboard is located at the intersection of N. Farwell and E. North avenues in Milwaukee.<\/strong><\/p>\n

PETA\u2014whose motto reads, in part, that \u201canimals are not ours to eat\u201d\u2014offers a list of delicious vegan fish options<\/strong><\/a>, such as Gardein\u2019s f\u2019sh filets, Sophie\u2019s Kitchen\u2019s Fish Fillets, and Good Catch Plant-Based Crab Cakes, as well as a free vegan starter kit<\/strong><\/a> to help people get hooked <\/em>on vegan food.<\/p>\n

PETA points out that Every Animal Is Someone<\/strong><\/a> and offers free Empathy Kits<\/strong><\/a> for people who need a lesson in kindness.
