The Other Side"...Smith said the activist organizations like The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS), Farm Sanctuary and People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) routinely work together and have ample financial resources. The combined annual income of 22 top animal rights groups amounts to more than $300 million a year, according to Smith.
Much of the money animal rights activists accumulate is being used to purchase stocks in restaurant chains, grocery store chains and other companies involved in the food and animal business. Smith said, although that may seem to be an odd investment choice for people strongly opposed to animal agriculture, “the reason (for buying stocks) is so that they can introduce shareholder resolutions. If they can make change from inside companies, they have a lot more control, and they can control that change.”
Their fiscal strength is also making animal rights organizations a major player in the political arena, Smith said. For example, the $3.4 million HSUS spent on the 2006 elections exceeded the amount spent by Exxon Mobil Corporation on supporting candidates.
