As previously mentioned, women RULE at activism, and this week was no exception. Not only did these lovely Street Teamers speak up for animals, they also did it by pushing the envelope and by being, well … bad asses.
Without further ado—let’s see what these awesome ladies have been up to:
Did you know that McDonald’s suppliers slit chickens’ throats while they are still conscious and often scald them alive? 
Hanna did, which is why she very appropriately flipped McCruelty the bird! (Fun fact: You can actually get 500 Street Team points for this! Just snap a pic of a particular finger in action in front of your nearest McDonald’s, and send it our way.)
Phoebe made her own DIY animal rights poster, and girl was so fearless that she walked all around London’s Underground with it in order to give a face to animals used in testing. From the look of the guys behind her, I’d say she hit her mark!
Street Teamer Olivia got to meet Brian May (oh, just a member of a little band called Queen) at a U.K. “Stop the Cull” event to protest the killing of badgers in Bristol. As if attending demonstrations to speak up for animals and meeting iconic rock stars weren’t enough, Olivia even created an awesome website to bring attention to this issue—check it out!
Thanks for all of your awesome outreach for animals this week, ladies!
If you’re as impressed as I am by these activists, it’s definitely time for you to join the fun by signing up for our Street Team! You’ll get great ideas on how you can help animals while also earning points toward FREE stuff like T-shirts, books, buttons, and more. Being a bad ass has never been this sweet!

Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.
Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ
I'm tall, a geek, nacho - obsessed, I love sewing and Cath Kidston, also I'm vegetarian (wannabe vegan.)
Jersey girl now I'm all country.
I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!

I am Angela. When I am not helping animals I am listening to music, reading, or playing video games. My spirit animal is a fox and I love nature. What else is there to know? Want to know anything about me, need advice or anything message me :)
Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.
