Ahead of International Dinosaur Day on June 1, activists from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) held a procession in Hyderabad on Wednesday championing veganism.
Along with members of the group Citizens for Animals, they wore inflatable dinosaur costumes and brandished signs reading: Stop Eating to Extinction. Go Vegan!
The campaigners pointed out that meat, egg and dairy production is a leading cause of pollution and species extinction, adding that researchers at the University of Oxford found that every person who goes vegan lowers the food-related carbon footprint by up to 73 per cent.
