PETA reports that it has continued in its effort to stop eBay from allowing the sale of live animals and animal parts on its auction website, but eBay has not budged. Instead, the auction giant has allowed these sales to continue. Thus, according to PETA, eBay is allowing animals to be tortured and killed mercilessly.

eBay has allowed the sale of items ranging from Akita puppies to lynx feet on its website. In fact, eBay has even allowed sellers to post eggs for cockfighting roosters despite the fact that it is a federal crime to allow roosters to be sold across state lines.
