Strips Down to Her Stripes for Animals in Zoos

PETA Asia-Pacific ad

 

Chinese-Malaysian cover model and actor Amber Chia (*The 3rd Generation*, *Trio

& a Bed*) earned her stripes as a friend to animals who are imprisoned in

zoos by starring in an eye-catching PETA anti-captivity ad in which the

fresh-faced beauty—who has graced the pages of *Harper's Bazaar*, *FHM*, *

Playboy*, and *NuYou*—poses wearing only painted tiger stripes to bring in

the Year of the Tiger. " Tigers, elephants, and chimpanzees aren't meant to

live fenced in any more than I am, " Chia explains. " The born free should

stay free. "

Animals in zoos are sentenced to a lifetime of boredom, loneliness, and

abuse. Even the biggest zoos cannot provide the space, exercise, privacy, or

mental stimulation that the animals they imprison need, much less fulfill

animals' other complex needs. As a result of their confinement, animals in

zoos frequently exhibit neurotic behavior such as constant pacing,

head-swaying, and circling. In response to their never-ending frustration,

some even resort to self-mutilation and other abnormal and self-destructive

behavior.

Make It a Good Year for Tigers! Help Animals in Zoos

 

Stay away from zoos and animal displays, and encourage other people to do

the same. Take our pledge to boycott

and promise never to support any business that profits from the confinement

of animals.
