PETA has contacted former Today Show host Matt Lauer regarding alleged animal abuse taking place on his property in New Zealand. According to a news release by PETA, an undercover investigation into sheep farms in New Zealand has uncovered horrific practices at a property owned by Matt Lauer. The report details several alarming incidents, including stepping on thrashing sheep's necks and dragging them across the floor.

PETA also describes several grizzly practices, including sewing up injured sheep without any painkillers. "whipping, manhandling, and hitting sheep with objects, including a metal-tipped pole." The report also details alleged incidents where workers smashed a sheep's head into a wooden board.

The PETA report also contains a link to video footage of the atrocities.

Lol. Baaaa.

I can’t believe I spelled dimension, dimention. And I haven’t even started to celebrate.

We’ll all had ‘dementia’ on our minds.

Things will get better, now.

[Varda]

And you believe PETA because......?

[A strike]

".....not much lower than an animal abuser ..." seriously ?

[V_TWIN]

I don’t.....my comment was a generality.

There’s a branch of the Hudson river in New York State, called the ‘Fishkill Creek’.

PETA made a big deal years back wanting the authorities there to change the name because it suggested violence toward fish.

The PETA dolts didn’t bother to learn that ‘kill’ in the name (’kille’ in Dutch’) just means ‘creek or stream’.

[Varda]

PETA defines abuse differently than normal people. I'm not a fan of Mat Lauer but combining his name with abuse is unjust when the source of the accusation is PETA or anyone like them.

[Rinnwald]

So it’s Fish Creek Creek? They should have changed the name just for that.

Muslims are very upset!

[Jamestown1630]

I suppose there aren’t enough speakers of Dutch left up there to insist on it.

[grey_whiskers]

Coffee spewed. 🤣

[Jamestown1630]

They think simply owning a pet is ‘abuse’.

In another twist of irony, and a nod to the mob the cities landfill is called “freshkills”

And Lauer was forced to move to New Zealand to escape the rape allegations here in the US....but as a proud card carrying member of the liberal media- all will be forgotten.

[gundog]

I watched while a wiry young lady dealt with a few sheep, years ago. They never had a chance.

Fresh Kills is another stream:

Didn’t he get chased off the Today Show for inappropriate sexual behavior in the workplace? Now sheep abuse?

[The_Media_never_lie]

Lauer is a liberal so he gets a pass.

[Varda]

That is true. They wish all domestic animals were extinct.
When I volunteered for an animal shelter it was easy to see which organizations were run by these people. Their euthanasia rates were very high because they wouldn't let many people adopt animals.

[Jamestown1630]

Other organizations (especially local ones) do much more in terms of animal rescue.
