What is the proof that PETA bribes public officials to change the names of
towns to more vegan type names? Does the author have a source for these
statements?

They never actually made payments because the offer was not accepted.
But there's more. Apparently, PETA made the same offer to the city of
Hamburg in Germany as well. It sounds like they got an even chillier
reception courtesy of the renowned German sense of whimsy.

No bribes involved, but here's an article from 7 years ago when they tried to
get Fishkill, NY to change its name.
