They Know He's Not Real. They Also Know They'll Get Publicity For This

PETA is at it again, complaining that Mario wears a raccoon suit, and therefore is promoting fur. Wait, Mario who? Mario as in "Super Mario Bros. 3D Land." The video game. Yes, he wears a suit of fur from Japanese raccoon dogs -- tanuki -- and in one sub-game, it's soaked in blood while he's being chased by a skinless animal, but, um, it's not real. It's a video game. It doesn't promote anything. Okay, PETA, is that enough attention for you? (USA Today)
