PETA hates mario?
So wondering around the internet thinking of who I really want to be in Skyrim (I'm addicted) and I come across this article on ign.com. Yup that's right PETA hates Mario. In the newest Mario game Mario can transform into a Tanooki. PETA saw the tanooki suit as telling kids it's alright to wear animals. PETA went so far as to make a website condemning this, including a little cartoon with a blood soaked Mario wearing the skin of a tanooki and holding it's removed face, and made a little game where a skinned tanooki chases Mario trying to get his skin back. PETA might have taken some time to think about all this though. Mario doesn't actually skin anything. He absorbs a super leaf which transforms him into tanooki Mario. He becomes one, he doesn't kill any. This is just like when he would eat a super carrot back in the day and he would sprout bunny ears, he didn't go around cutting off the tails and ears of bunnies.
