Women strip in Moscow for animal rights

Protesting the fur industry during Russian winter is a losing proposition. Stripping in the cold never fails to get attention, but if these activists really want to make a difference, they might want to spend their time developing synthetic materials that could provide the same amount of warmth for a lower price--in Russia, where fur coats are primarily functional as opposed to a status good, fur is a relatively cheap way to keep from freezing.

Also not helping the cause--the fact that these women are foreigners from the U.S. and Australia. Russians have had their fill of clueless Westerners telling them what to do.
