Anheuser-Busch Promotes Cruelty to Animals!
PETA has fired off a letter to Anheuser-Busch, calling on
the company to immediately stop sponsoring Bassmaster fishing
tournaments.
Recent scientific studies prove that fish are intelligent
individuals who feel pain
just as all animals do. Fish are fast learners and can remember
lessons their entire lives. Fish intelligence studies have
also shown that they recognize and remember one another, and
they can tell time. Fish even use tools, which was thought
by anthropologists until relatively recently to be an exclusively
human trait. Yet these fascinating individuals are mercilessly
abused by Bassmaster participants. In fact, fishers could
land in jail if they treated any other animal as cruelly as
they treat fish!
Fish feel pain and fear every time their sensitive mouths
are pierced with an angler’s hook. We urge Anheuser-Busch
to stop bankrolling cruelty to animals at Bassmaster tournaments.

Anheuser-Busch would
never sponsor tournaments that involved impaling dogs
or cats with hooks through their mouths, but it’s
not any better to treat fish so abusively. |
