PETA announced plans to demonstrate against using salmon “corpses used as toys” during a fish throwing demonstration being performed for The American Veterinary Medical Association’s annual convention here in Seattle by the famous Pike Place Market fish throwers. PETA also threatened each individual veterinarian with demonstrations back in their home towns if they participated in the event. The AVMA plans to go ahead with the event, calling the fish throwing a “cultural icon in Seattle.” Read more in the article in the Seattle Times.
