We know that PETA has said that they were just kidding but that hasn't stopped a number web sites and internet video shows from taking a crack at the subject anyway. The Escapist's The Big Picture is one of those web shows offering a rebuttal to PETA's campaign against Mario for his Tanooki-suit wearing ways. We'll let show host MovieBob do all the talking.
Thanks to Andrew Eisen for the link.

Re: MovieBob Responds to PETA
Told you. I said to ignore them.
And at any rate, I've heard that PETA kills animals before, but I've never actually believed it...until now. Thanks, Escapist.
