Bowsite.com, a specialty Web site for bow-hunting aficionados, reports on how a People for the Ethical Treatment
of Animals stunt backfired:

For safety's sake, hunters in Ohio are required by law to display at least 400 square inches of hunter's blaze
orange on their person when in the woods. Capitalizing on the fact that hunters do not usually shoot orange,
PETA recently bulk purchased blaze orange vests and have been affixing them to live-trapped deer in Youngstown
suburbs. According to PETA spokesperson Katie Reese, a total of 405 vests were successfully put into circulation
prior to this week, with additional specimens still being caught and vested.

Youngtown entrepreneur Guy Lockey, of Guy's Outdoors has spit in the face of PETA by offering rewards for the
returned vests this week. Hunters who can successfully bag a vested deer can pay $5 for random and biggest
animal awards. As of Tuesday, 308 of the vests had already been recorded as bagged with most of the hunters
registering for Mr. Lockey's drawing.

It's so easy, you can see them coming a mile away" said one first year hunter after checking in his first spike buck.
 
I have heard elsewhere that this is actually a myth, didn't happen. I've made no effort to confirm, so can't say. It does sound like some of the dumbass things they've been known to do...

Whether this is true or not I would like to say PETA SUCKSASS. I have pulled a few tricks on them through their website. You can make online donations and they will post your name and quote on their website. The post will only be there for a few hours until they figure out you supplied bogus credit card information but still funny as hell. Be imaginative...
