89 dogs were rescued from an animal hoarder in the Mojave Desert.

And somehow, all 89 of the animals have miraculously survived!

What's even stranger is the person who originally called the would be rescuers, Karma Rescue, was the hoarder herself!

The woman realized there was no possible way for her to take care of so many dogs, and luckily she came to her senses before it was too late.

Not to say that the dogs were found completely unharmed!

Morrissey is a big fighter for animal rights.

So of course he slapped his name on a petition that was demanding an independent probe into a vivisection lab at Imperial College London.

If you're unfamiliar with the term, vivisection is a surgery performed on a living creature for experimental purposes.

That means these animals are ALIVE when scientists begin cutting into them!

Uh oh! Watch out chef Gordon Ramsay, PETA is coming for you!!

Chef Ramsay is in the hot seat after an undercover video exposed some serious animal cruelty at a foie gras factory which supplies one of his restaurants.

Ginnifer Goodwin has stepped up and is voicing her opposition to the ag gag bill in Tennessee.

She joins the likes of Carrie Underwood in her plea for Tenn. Governor Bill Haslam to veto the bill.

If you haven't heard somehow, in Tennessee there's a bill trying to make it so animal abuse whistleblowers have to turn their evidence over to police within 48 hours of learning of the abuse or risk facing charges themselves.

The whole point of this bill is to make it so farm industry abuse is harder to document because two days isn't enough time to document ongoing, systemic abuse.

Ginnifer tweeted:

This may sound like a joke, hoax or conspiracy theory… but it's not!

It's all real life!!

Back in the 60's, when spying was all about telephones in shoes and knockout gas in wristwatches, the CIA came up with a crazy program: Operation Acoustic Kitty.

Yes, that's the real name.

They implanted a microphone microchip in a cat's ear canal, an antenna was embedded down his tail and a transmitter was implanted at the base of his skull.

The Kansas City Pet Project has gotten ahold of a puppy who survived nearly a month locked in an impounded car!!!

The puppy's name is Kia, and is only 12 weeks old, and apparently survived by eating trash that was left in the car. Kia had NO access to any water!!!

Emily Deschanel is a kind and caring person!

She's also a mother, so she cares deeply about other mothers, even animal ones.

Also an animal lover and vegan, Emily cannot stand how dairy cows are kept constantly pregnant, forced to produce up to four times as much milk as they naturally would and have their calves torn away from them.

These poor animals suffer just so we can have cheese, or a glass of milk, which some studies have shown to cause acne, breast/prostate cancer and even type 1 diabetes.

So join Emily in rejecting cruel dairy foods by trying vegan alternatives!!

Check out the video (above) to hear Emily's heartfelt message on behalf of PETA.
