Question for the Americans out there

[starrylizard]

So, over here we have organisations, like Greenpeace (Greenies), who are all about protecting the animals and old growth forest etc. and they go out and protest and run little boats in the way of whaling ships and tie themselves to trees that are about to be logged etc.

What would be the equivalent group in America? Anyone?

PETA

PETA, which the others mentioned stands for "People For The Ethical Treatment of Animals", which I'm all for but they can go a little overboard with it. For instance, PETA wanted my alumni university to change it's mascot, The University Of South Carolina Gamecocks. Apparently having a man dressed up in a chicken suit dancing around at a sporting event is offensive to.... chickens.
