Execution

We spent three months training three parrots for this task. We taught them how to stand in front of a microphone and speak up for those animals who couldn’t do so themselves. We then took our message directly to point-of-sale locations of animal-cruelty products -- A shark’s fin restaurant, a fur and leather fashion store, and a traditional Chinese medicine store. Our spokes-animals even got on the phone with leaders of government departments and trade industries.
