Steve-O Takes A Stand Against Dissection
by ERICA LIEPMANN, Causecast Associate Editor
Daredevil Steve-O, famous for his stunts of the TV show Jackass, might hurt himself – but he’s adamant about not hurting animals. Over the course of his work with Peta2, Steve-O has become a vegetarian and an advocate for animal rights.
In his new Peta2 campaign, jokingly named “Cut Class, Not Frogs,” Steve-O is coming out against animal dissection in schools and the cruelty behind killing frogs and other animals for this purpose. He has a good point – “Don’t they have virtual dissections going on with computers these days?”
Check out what Steve-O has to say in his Peta2 video:
