PETA activists protest naked

An event organized by the animal-rights group PETA drew the attention of passersby on Prague’s Charles Bridge. As part of PETA’s “We’d rather go naked than wear fur”- campaign, participants passed out flyers wearing nothing but underwear, with their skin painted to resemble snake skin, a material sometimes used for the production of purses and shoes. The campaign is meant to persuade consumers to purchase items made from synthetic materials instead. Similar events have taken place in Geneva, Milan and Budapest.
