Yes ... She's Pregnant and In a Cage

Protesting cramped living conditions for sows, PETA activists were really showing London how bad things can get for the humble pig.
PETA Protester
This nearly-naked pregnant lass, demonstrating the plight of the porker, garnered particular attention, especially from two of the world's teeniest activists. Notice how thirsty the one on the left looks -- and how confused they both seem to be.

76. Rachel, I'm relieved there are people like you who work in research and care for the defenseless animal. You are only one of few caring persons amongst cruel researchers. But, I wasn't directing my post at animal research in the sense of labratories. I work in the legal field and what I meant by research is education on animal rights. I have more than a clue, I have compassion.

77. Yet another example of why, although I believe in vegetarianism, I will never support PETA.

78. What is really sick is how human animals treat the other animals. This brave mom-to-be is demonstrating the really ugly and cruel conditions pigs are forced to endure because of the sick love of flesh. What is even more bizarre and juvenile is the nasty disrespectful remarks made about this young woman. What is extreme is the violence and cruelty pigs, sheep, lambs, goats, cows, calves, ducks, rabbits and chickens endure both on factory farms and in slaughterhouses. What you are ridiculing are yourselves because that is what you do to innocent herbivores every second of the day because of your sick addiction to flesh. Go vegan and be compassionate!!!

79. Why didn't they get a fata$$ to be the pig? PETA is just hypocritical, and it's pathetic the lengths they go to to get their "message" across.

80. She is a sow and exactly where she should be. Her family was busy during this photo shoot running to the court house to legally change their names so they would not be associated with her.

83. Peta should focus on the following issues if they want people to become vegetarians 1. stop attacking and alienating average civilians that are just trying to survive and feed their families as best they can. 2. Try to bring down HIGH prices of veggies and fruits. 3. Try to influence lower prices at animal friendly organic markets like whole foods and trader joes.

Veggies and fruits are TOO expensive!! People struggle to keep their homes nowadays and do the best they can to take care of their families. Organic markets need to chill on the prices and snobby attitude.

Peta needs to face reality and focus on those who control prices and quality of produce and stop alienating the common folk.

84. #59, Peta does NOTHING but make royal asses out of themselves. PETA ARE DOG KILLERS! Don't think we've forgotten about the story of them MURDERERING all those dogs and putting them in dumpsters. HERE IS THE LINK IF YOU THINK I'M MAKING IT UP!! http://www.consumerfreedom.com/pressRelease_detail.cfm/release/109 PETA is EXTREME. Animals will always be eaten and PETA needs to get over it. Speaking of which, I need to get back to my steak. PETA ARE FREAKS!

85. Okay, so she will harm her own unborn child by going outside naked in the cold to stick up for a pig? Doesn't she see the irony in this? Shi**y Mom to be if you ask me.

86. Wow..the comments on here are truly those of ignorant fools. It's amazing that you are horrified by the image of a half-naked woman, that this is going to far, but confining pigs in metal cages on concrete floors their entire lives is ok. Pigs have equal intelligence as dogs and can suffer the same. Would you allow your dog to suffer in those conditions? To the moron who said the mother pig would roll over onto her piglets..ya....if she's stuck in that little cage! In natural surroundings they do just fine. To the idiot who says PETA leaders get paid alot...Ingrid Newkirk, the president, is paid $36,000 a year. You are the ones who need to do some research...and while you're at it develop some morals.

87. I did my research Kurt, they are animal killers. PETA KILLS ANIMALS http://www.consumerfreedom.com/pressRelease_detail.cfm/release/109 They murder dogs and throw them in dumpsters. Pass the bacon! That "mother" should have her child taken away from her.

89. Alex, if you truly support animal rights, PETA is an organization you want to steer clear of. Again, do some research into their practices and "ethics" and you will find there is nothing ethical about them. To Kurt, I have plenty of morals. I shop very consciously and have been involved in rescue work with animals for about ten years. PETA is an ugly, disgusting organization that cares about making a scene, not making a difference. Did you read about their members, who under the direction of Ingrid, were picking up and euthanizing animals and dumping them? Wow, that's humane. And that's only part of it. http://www.petakillsanimals.com/article_detail.cfm?article=134 -- this can all be collaborated by other sources.

90. Ya...PETA are extreme. Whatever. This is a group of people who want to stop suffering and violence to animals that can't defend themselves. How is that extreme compared to animals being raised in cages, have their necks slit open, have chemicals rubbed in theirs, anally electrocuted for fur, mass bred, force fed, have electrodes implanted in their brains, burned while concious to test medicine.....who are the real extremists. Certainly not the peaceful people looking to stop cruelty.
