CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) - Another animal rights campaign has hit a roadblock in Wyoming.
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals says two outdoor advertising companies have refused to post billboards in Cheyenne showing a digitally manipulated image of a dog caught on a fish hook.
Karen Robertson is a spokeswoman for PETA. She says Young Electric Sign Company of Salt Lake City and Next Media of Fort Collins, Colorado, rejected PETA's attempts to rent billboard space for the ads.
PETA contends fishing is cruel, and wants to promote that argument through the billboards.
Neither company returned calls Friday from the Star-Tribune of Casper.
Robertson says PETA has successfully posted identical billboards in Alabama, Florida and Missouri, but that the billboards have been rejected in other areas.
