Kind People Needed for Investigating Animal Cruelty

PETA investigates the treatment of animals by corporations and also looks into tips and complaints from concerned workers across all industries that exploit animals. We train and send investigators to work in these industries (laboratories, farms, pet suppliers, slaughterhouses, circuses, and more) and report their observations daily. This is a 100% travel job, and we provide travel expenses (transportation, housing, food) as well as excellent benefits. Animal experience preferred (but not necessary).
