Hold your (exploited New York City carriage pulling) horses! Looks like the Blake Shelton vs. PETA Twitter war is back on, and PETA may have called in more troops. After announcing Thursday that PETA had blocked him from getting their updates, Blake told his Twitter followers that the war was back on:

blakeshelton: Man who’d of thought a little old drunken country singer could cause such a stir in the tree huggin world… Ha! I love this country…..

And indeed, the barbs began to fly again immediately between Blake and @officialpeta, including the following:

officialpeta: PETA doesn’t focus on hunting cuz other orgs already do. (via @officialpeta)
blakeshelton: Not to mention being too chicken shit! I’M BACK!!!……

Someone has also created a Twitter account just to battle Blake on animal rights issues, called PETAagainstBS. The account uses a photo of Blake with a red X over his face as its Twitter profile photo and follows only one person — Blake, of course.

PETAagainstBS: YOU SHOULD NOT EAT MEAT, but rumore is thats the way you swing
blakeshelton: YOU shouldn’t reproduce… Rumor is you probably can’t..

Blake’s fans are looking forward to the fur flying again — and with hunting season in Oklahoma starting soon, probably pictures that PETA is definitely not going to approve of. Watch out sea kittens (fish) and Bambi — Blake is gunning for you!
