PETA Opposes Fish-Tossing Demo
In this 2007 AP file photo, Erik Espinoza, right, and Anders Miller, center, both of Pike Place Fish Market, look on as J.J. Swanton, left, throws a fish in the salmon-tossing contest held in honor of the 100th anniversary of the Pike Place Market in Seattle. Now, PETA, which believes that tossing dead fish is similar to tossing dead kittens, is pressuring the American Veterinary Medicine Association to call off a fish-tossing demonstration that was suppose to open its July 10 convention in Seattle.
