Get ready to FREAK out! This is what makes working for peta2—and being part of the peta2 family—so cool!
At a recent demonstration during the presidential elections, a cuddly elephant carrying a sign asking President Barack Obama to tell the U.S. Department of Agriculture to confiscate beaten circus elephants got a little extra support—and a whole lot of AWESOME—from some new friends!
Those new friends would be the group Hip-Hop for President, who were so affected by the thought of elephants being beaten, whipped, electrocuted, and forced to perform painful and unnatural tricks that they created an impromptu freestyle jam complete with beatboxing on the spot. And who is that crazy-talented PETA staffer throwing down his own sweet rhymes? Why, it’s our very own CircusesHurtAnimals.com!
Enjoy the video below and then head over to the ”Take Action” section to start helping elephants!
