Treatment of Animals (PETA)
June 2014
NOTE: California's diary industry is one of the largest in the nation. Producing one gallon of milk uses 1,000 gallons of water! Priorities?!
SCVWD officials have informed PETA that wildlife are not a priority and that the drought is being used as a pond-cleaning opportunity.
Please tell Santa Clara Valley Water District (SCVWD) officials to
allocate water to reservoirs, ponds, and creeks for wildlife immediately
and/or relocate animals to areas with sufficient levels, if possible.

Because of extreme drought conditions, water levels have dropped significantly in many Central California creeks, reservoirs, and ponds, resulting in turtles, fish, and other aquatic animals slowly suffocating. Yet instead of assisting these animals, the Santa Clara Valley Water District (SCVWD) is reportedly moving water OUT of key reservoirs and allowing numerous percolation ponds to dry up!
SCVWD officials have informed PETA that wildlife are not a priority and that the drought is being used as a pond-cleaning opportunity. Now it’s your turn to weigh in!
Thank you for everything you do for animals!
