Stop the Violence, Mario! sincerely, PETA
quote:
When on a mission to rescue the princess, Mario has been known to use any means necessary to defeat his enemy—even wearing the skin of a raccoon dog to give him special powers.
Tanooki may be just a "suit" in Mario games, but in real life, tanuki are raccoon dogs who are skinned alive for their fur. By wearing Tanooki, Mario is sending the message that it's OK to wear fur.
This is nothing short of a propagandist smear campaign set forth by the terrorist organization that seeks to supplant the Toadstool Monarchy! Their repeated attempts at Gorilla Warfare - via the employ of one D. Kong - as well as numerous kidnapping attempts in the past few decades have merely resulted in this latest scheme to besmirch the names of the brothers who ceaselessly leap to action at every installment! "King" Bowser, indeed!
