Grand Haven's Lake Michigan lighthouses are the prime location sought by an
animal rights group for its anti-fishing campaign headquarters.
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has applied through
a federal program to take over the structures and lighted catwalk that are
frequently photographed for dramatic sunsets, thick winter ice and crashing
waves.
The area gets nearly 2 million annual visitors, including anglers
casting lines into the Grand River channel and heading out in boats for Great
Lakes salmon.
