How do you know this? I don't know, but I'm sure there are groups out there that are concerned with fish, insects and amphibians. I don't know if PETA cares, but there are plenty of other people paying attention.
Any sincere animal rights advocate would, out of concern for animal rights, not eat animals, including fish. That tells me they give a damn about them.

I suppose. The general public are not animal rights advocates though. It is true that most people would care more about kittens getting whacked down at the animal shelter than they would about some tree frog going extinct. Too bad.
