Laura Vandervoort strips off for PETA

Written by . Published: October 19 2011

Laura Vandervoort has become the latest star to strip for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals' (PETA) anti-fur campaign.


The Smallville star shed her clothes and had her body painted to resemble a lizard for the wild 'Whose Skin Are You In? Leave Wildlife Out Of Your Wardrobe' photoshoot, during which she pretended to crawl over a rock.


She says, "Three or four alligators have to die for one purse. They nail the snake's head to a tree while it is still alive and peel its skin off,.


"Because they are cold-blooded creatures, they take that much longer to die, so they suffer that much longer... You wouldn't skin your dog to wear to an event, to go out on a date... So please, have some compassion for animals."
