HSBC Dumps Glue Traps
September 2011
HSBC, the 10th largest financial institution in the country, immediately stopped using glue traps after learning from PETA that these traps kill mice and other animals by starvation and suffocation.
“Almost all of us grew up eating meat, wearing leather, and going to circuses and zoos. We never considered the impact of these actions on the animals involved. For whatever reason, you are now asking the question: Why should animals have rights?”
— Ingrid E. Newkirk, PETA President and co-author of Animalkind
