PETA staged this meat package stunt in Times Square to raise awareness for their ‘Meat is Murder’ campaign. PETA's volunteers were covered in fake blood lying nude in oversized plastic wrapped meat trays. The individual packages were marked with price stickers to remind people that “Billions of animals are abused and violently killed because you eat meat.”
This striking display by PETA and its activist is a clear-cut reminder that all animals are flesh, blood and bone, with the same senses and emotions as humans. See other PETA stunts below.
