America's outpouring of sorrow at the passing of radio legend Casey Kasem is no surprise, but some people might be surprised to learn all that Kasem did for animals.

His support of PETA included flying to Las Vegas at his own expense to speak out on our behalf during a lawsuit from a documented animal abuser.

And he stopped voicing the iconic character Shaggy on the cartoon Scooby-Doo because he was such a dedicated vegetarian that he refused to appear in a Burger King commercial.
