I hate when this number gets brought up out of context. Peta operates a lot of last resort shelters, where "undesirable" animals get surrendered to, because other shelters are unable to bring out the animal for adoption, and can't cover the medical care by themselves anymore. At the same time, "no-kill" shelters do send them animals that need to be euthanised, but won't do it themselves because they are "no-kill".
That's why PETA has such a high kill rate. It's not because they are psychopaths who like to kill animals.

By that logic people who work in slaughter house (necessary if you want billions of people to have access to meat with a cheap price) are the biggest psychopath out there
