People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) appears to have expanded its cause to include virtual fish in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, the wildly popular video game for the Nintendo Switch.
PETA shared footage on Twitter Wednesday of an apparent in-game protest outside Blathers’ Museum, a virtual museum run by a cartoon owl in the game.
Animal Crossing puts players in charge of an idyllic, deserted island where they can grow flowers, plant fruit, catch fish and snare bugs.
Players submit the fish and bugs to the museum for display, but the creatures are not killed in the game. PETA’s video shows several human players protesting outside the museum and then storming into it.
