Fishkill name called cruel in Hudson Valley
PETA urges Fishkill to rename to Fishsave citing cruelty concerns but Mayor George Carter refuses, noting the name dates to the 1600s and derives from Dutch for stream. PETA ties the campaign to its Save Our Schools drive, arguing fish feel pain and should not be used for entertainment.
