Sonu Sood joins PETA


Sonu Sood plays a cop in Bbuddah Hoga Terra Baap. The guy seems to be taking his role as a protector rather seriously. He is a wildlife ambassador for PETA. 

The actor has not only shot a campaign promoting vegetarianism, but has also written to the Candian government to stop a sport called the Canadian seal hunt. Every year, fisherfolk beat thousands of seals to death and sell the animals' pelts on the international fur market.

Many of the seals killed in the massacre are only a few weeks old. This slaughter is the largest massacre of marine mammals in the world. World leaders such as US President Barack Obama and His Holiness The Dalai Lama have denounced the massacre while the likes of Pamela Anderson, Bryan Adams, Ke$ha and Iggy Pop, just to name a few, have already raised concern about this issue. Sonu becomes one of the first Indians to endorse the cause and add his name to this growing list of celebrities speaking up against this massacre. "It is a very cruel sport and should be stopped. I support the efforts to conserve wildlife and am happy to do my bit and contribute," says Sonu.
