Olive Garden still doesn’t offer a single exciting vegan entrée on its menu. Diners can get by with plain noodles covered in marinara sauce, but it’s 2026, and customers are hungry for delicious, animal-friendly options in restaurants. Please join PETA in urging the company to add a satisfying vegan version of a popular Olive Garden entrée to the menu.

More and more people know that animals used for food in the U.S. live on massive industrial “factory farms.” More than 9 billion land animals are slaughtered for food in the United States annually. They’re crammed into wire cages, metal crates, or other extremely restrictive enclosures inside filthy, windowless sheds. After enduring short, miserable lives, their throats are slit at slaughterhouses. That’s why kind customers want solid vegan options when they visit restaurants.

We need your help. Please take action today!

PETA has been alerted to a pigeon massacre reportedly underway at The Village of Stuart condo complex in Stuart, FL. According to an email apparently sent recently by the complex’s HOA (screenshot below), a contractor will be at the property multiple times a week blasting away pigeons with an air rifle. These weapons can cause severe and often non-immediately lethal injuries leading to prolonged pain and distress. Further, lethal initiatives tear apart wild families, leaving orphaned young to starve, and are simply ineffective long-term.

A resident reports witnessing pigeons being shot down from rooftops and even out of the sky while attempting to fly over the community. While allegedly stuffing dead pigeons into bags, the contractor reportedly stated that he intended to kill as many as he could, noting that’s why he was hired by the HOA.

PETA reached out to the HOA but our pleas have gone unanswered. These pigeons need your voice! Please politely contact the HOA asking them to immediately stop this barbaric initiative, and to instead implement humane deterrents which are tried and true! Remember it is crucial to keep correspondence polite, as rude messages can hurt our efforts.

Update (May 21, 2026): PETA has received confirmation from The Village of Stuart’s HOA that all services related to the shooting or lethal removal of pigeons at their complex will cease immediately, and that they are open to discussing humane alternatives with us. Thank you to all who spoke out! Your voices made all the difference for these birds!
