Kansas City, Missouri. – If Tyrant Mathieu will receive an interception during this year’s Super Bowl, PETA will receive $ 100,000. This is an offer made by an anonymous donor in honor of Mathieu’s long-standing support for PETA.
The money is for the group’s work to educate people about the dangers of leaving dogs in hot cars in summer and about “street dogs” chained in the cold 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for which Mathieu starred in two viral videos: He baked inside a hot car where dogs can succumb to heatstroke for minutes and he shivered in the freezer to illustrate how dogs suffer when left outside during the cold winter months. His practice of putting his own body in danger to help animals recently earned him a 40-person PETA Humanitarian Award.th jubilee celebration donated by a teammate Patrick Mahomes, who called it “a valuable resource not only for our team, but also for animals in need of protection.”
“PETA has found Tyranne Mathieu as a selfless dog protector,” says PETA Senior Vice President Lisa Lange. “We will cheer him on this Sunday, knowing how happy he would be to win such a generous donation for the animals abandoned to him.”
PETA field team – who can be seen inBreaking the chain, a new documentary directed by Oscar winner Angelica Houston, operates in southeastern Virginia and northeastern North Carolina, offering free services to low-income populations, including custom-built dog kennels and straw bedding.
PETA, whose motto is in part that “animals are not in our hands to be abused in any way,” opposes arrogance, a worldview focused on human superiority. For more information please visit PETA.org or subscribe to the group on Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram…
