Summary

This week we welcome the founder of PETA, Ingrid Newkirk, to discuss her 30th Anniversary edition of her book, Free the Animals: The Amazing True Story of the Animal Liberation Front in North America. We were excited to not only talk to Ingrid about her book, we also chatted about all her work through the years and just how she has helped change global consciousness about the welfare of animals. We also ask Ingrid her views on conservation and how PETA can help the efforts on those around the world fighting to save endangered species. This truly was an amazing interview and chance to speak with such an incredible person and one who has impacted nearly all of us in some way. Without a doubt, Ingrid has undoubtedly made the world a better place for animals and their welfare should be a concern for all of us.
