See What Made PETA’s List of What’s ‘In’ and What’s ‘Out’ for 2023
The end of another big year for animals is here: Among our accomplishments in 2022 are the transfer of 4,000 dogs, who were imprisoned at the beagle-breeding hellhole Envigo, into safe and loving homes, and the debut of our new virtual reality experience, “Abduction,” to college campuses around the U.S. 2023 will start off on the right foot with the California fur ban, which goes into effect on January 1, and PETA will make sure the year keeps going strong.
2022 brought a lot of changes, and we’re here to mark them with our annual tradition. PETA’s list of what’s “in” and what’s “out” in 2023 will make sure you know what’s up:
