ACTION ALERT Dear Tia, PETA invites you to watch the globally acclaimed, United Nations nominated documentary Gods In Shackles for free during a special screening starting today- October 25 through October 31. Produced and directed by the award winning journalist and filmmaker Sangita Iyer, Gods in Shackles reveals the dark side of India’s glamourous cultural festivals that exploit temple elephants for profit behind the veil of culture and religion. To watch, click on this exclusive link. And using this special link, 20% of all merchandise proceeds will go to PETA. See how elephants are taken from their homes in Indian forests to be used as props at festivals and tourist traps. Torn away from their families as babies, they are isolated and viciously beaten to break their spirits. They are so malnourished, neglected, and abused that they become emaciated, their trunks may become paralyzed, they may go blind, and the flesh on their legs is almost always cut open, bleeding, and raw from heavy chains. These majestic animals were once captured and sold into our entertainment industry for circuses, zoos, and elephant rides. They are the ones being forced to breed the next generation of captive elephant performers in the U.S. In this tourist fueled industry, awareness is vitally important to protect and preserve Asian Elephants-who are an endangered species. After watching the documentary, please spread the word about Gods In Shackles on social media, and forward this email to your friends and family. For all animals. Sincerely yours, John Di Leonardo, M.S. Assistant Manager, Animals in Entertainment People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals
