In addition to the other answers, Peta is also used as a prefix for big numbers. In this context, "Peta" means a quadrillion, i. e. a number with 15 zeros.

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.
It can be a very controversial subject. The group has changed over the years. They mainly are known for animal rights activities.
The joke version is People Eating Tasty Animals.
Hope this helps.
