As wasteful winter holidays are approaching, animal right groups would do everything in their power to convince the public opinion that meat is murder. One of the most shocking attempts of this kind was recorded in Spain, in a crowded market from Barcelona.

Spanish AnimaNaturalis organization thought it is time to serve an uncommon dish. A brave demonstrator has decided to take all her clothes off for the sake of vulnerable animals and lie on a plate, surrounded by dipping sauce imitating blood and appealing veggies, Daily Mail informs.

The woman didn't seem bothered by the intimidating presence of people or the freezing temperatures outside, since she managed to stay there for quite a while, in the same position, hoping to be able to deliver a strong message.

She wasn't the only one concerned about the fate of creatures that would be sacrificed to end up on our dinner table, just in time for Christmas. She was accompanied by other participants holding banners slandering meat consumption.

“The cruelty is only one species does not understand, does not discriminate between human animals and non-human animals.Today, the consumption of meat is a habit that can be disposed of perfectly,” explained Campaign co-ordinator Alba Mangado.

The group seems to have enough reasons to encourage people to stop eating meat, especially during this time of the year, since apparently 50 billion animals are being sacrificed every year, according to a report provided by AnimaNaturalis.

If Christmas tradition implies eating stuffed pork loin, drinking wine and singing carols, boycotting meat consumption is one of the favorite practices of the organization.

The group was launched in 2003. Since then it has aimed to "establish, disseminate and protect" the rights of animals, even through such unconventional methods with a powerful visual impact.

Even though its strategy might be considered a tad extreme, the relevance of its green mission cannot be questioned.
