To express our gratitude in PETA style, we sent Conlon a box of vegan chocolate chimpanzees and a big "thank you" for joining the host of companies that have stood up for great apes. The Ad Council joins the likes of Subaru, Honda, Yahoo!, PUMA, Movietickets.com, and SEGA, which also recently made this fantastic pledge.
Oh, and PETA will be following up with the CEOs of all the top U.S. ad agencies that sit on the Ad Council's executive board, requesting that they follow suit, so … expect more on this campaign in the near future! Of course, if you work in the ad world, you can save us the trouble of tracking you down by signing PETA's "Great Ape Humane Pledge" today! Yes, chocolate monkeys would follow shortly!

Great news. Thank you so much PETA. And thank you to all the companies who take the pledge. We can do it. we can eradicate the horror of using animals as props for ads.

Thanks God for the CEOs who understand animals have emotions and feel pain just like us. Thanks God for CEOs who aren't selfish and care for animal life.
Bravo Peta, you are God's angels. As a real Catholic
(a real one, not a fake one) I see animals as God's creatures and I will never eat them, nor wear them nor experiment/test on them because I don't do what I don't want to be done to me.
I give them the same mercy and compassion I ask God to give to me.
God Bless you Peta!

I agree with all of you guys. The gorilla needs to be free. By the way, I have been a Vegan for four years, and I dislike the views of people who eat meat, just like all of you. No-one that can eat another creature should feel good afterwords, it is truly sad. I dont like apes beeing held captive, it should be tigers in those cages and othe carnivorous animals, they are all sinners just like the people who eat meat. I think people and animals have the same rights just like you guys, and should be punished the same way. The animals are our friends folks, and no person or other animal should be able to eat each other.
