I can't stand this group sometimes. This one is stupid IMO and the damn animals aren't being harmed.
It's bad enough that they harass people out in public, but then they also throw things on them and ruin their clothing. And many times like this, they will go public just to get attention for their cause. They should change it from PETA to PITA.

PETA Has A High-Tech Plan For Saving Punxsutawney Phil
Every year, in the dead of winter, a couple guys dressed up in crazy outfits complete with tophats hunt down a ground-dwelling mammal and savagely yank him from his burrow.
That mammal’s name is Punxsutawney Phil.
With Groundhog Day fast approaching, PETA is calling for the end of the annual theatrics, demanding Phil be replaced with an animatronic robot.
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals wrote in a letter to the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club this week that the time has come to end the decades-old tradition. PETA says the Club could begin using a high-tech animatronic groundhog that could actually predict the weather using artificial intelligence.
“Gentle, vulnerable groundhogs are not barometers,” PETA Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman said. “PETA is offering the club a win-win situation: Breathe life into a tired tradition and finally do right by a long-suffering animal.”
