PETA president Ingrid Newkirk to send her heart to Elon Musk when she dies

In a bizarre will, one woman has revealed why she will give Elon Musk her heart, Donald Trump her spine, and Salt Bae her intestines.

Peta founder Ingrid Newkirk is leaving her heart to Elon Musk in her new will.

Ingrid Newkirk, the president of PETA, is making waves with her last will and testament.

In the latest headline-grabbing stunt from the animal rights group, Ms Newkirk is bequeathing parts of her own body to ensure that her fight against animal abuse and exploitation continues after her passing.

Among the extraordinary provisions are a piece of her heart for cloning by Elon Musk, her intestines for viral chef Salt Bae, and part of her spine intended for Donald Trump.

Ms Newkirk’s original will was drafted two decades ago, but in a recent update filed with her attorney executor, she has unveiled a series of unconventional bequests targeting high-profile figures.

Leading the list is a piece of her heart to Mr Musk, chief executive of SpaceX.

The intention behind the bequest is for cloning, and references PETA’s opposition to Mr Musk’s controversial Neuralink project and its alleged animal testing.

The will also bequeaths part of her spine to Mr Trump, in an allusion to his past trophy-hunting exploits.

Taking aim at the fashion industry, Ms Newkirk plans to transform some of her skin into a leather belt and purse.

One item will be sent to Hermès, a high-end fashion house that continues to use animal skins, while the other will be sent to the Prime Minister of India to protest the leather industry’s treatment of animals.

Ms Newkirk has also decided to send a piece of her trachea to the Westminster Kennel Club and in a bid to end the Iditarod dog-sled race, she plans to donate her lungs to the Governor of Alaska.

The infamous viral chef, Salt Bae, will receive a rather unconventional gift from Ms Newkirk — her intestines.

The unusual bequest aims to urge him to reconsider his meat-centric menu by using her intestines as sausage casings.

Also on the list is the King of Spain, who will receive one of her ears to protest against the sport of bullfighting, where matadors often sever bulls’ ears as trophies.

And a foot will go to popular outdoor brand The North Face to admonish it for selling down wool products.

In opposition to the force-feeding of ducks and geese, Ms Newkirk will dispatch her liver, carefully preserved and packaged, to the President of France.

Ms Newkirk’s intention with the will is clearly to raise eyebrows, as has been the modus operandi of PETA over the years.

“On his deathbed, they asked Bob Hope where he wanted to be buried and he replied, ‘Surprise me,’” she said.

“In my case, when I die, I will hope to keep right on surprising those who harm animals, provoking conversations about speciesism, and campaigning against animal abuse.”
