It's not often I find myself agreeing with Peta. Sadly while their message may be quite right much of the time, there is an extremist faction within the organization that agrees with throwing paint on fur coats and other crazy radical bullshit that alienates normal people.
However, when it comes to making pretty celebrities strip for their beliefs, I can certainly support that. In this ad Olivia Munn gets naked for a very good cause; boycotting the circus.
There are two opposing arguments here; one that a circus can educate kids and make them more likely to demand protections for animals. The other argument is that forcing caged animals to do tricks is abusive and essentially involves significant animal cruelty for the entertainment of humans.
I have to go with the latter here. Elephants are highly intelligent social creatures, and keeping them in little cages and making them do tricks is wholly unacceptable.
Whatever you think of Peta, or Olivia Munn in the nude, I think this cause is one we should all support.
