Vegetarian dons lettuce bikini to protest lamb campaign
Meat and Livestock Australia is spending $1 million to encourage us to eat lamb this Australia Day, but one animal liberationist is running a "bare bones" campaign against it.

Jodi Ruckley is travelling from Brisbane to Sydney wearing a bikini made of lettuce leaves.

She hopes it will make people think differently about intensive farming practices and embrace a vegetarian lifestyle.

"Lots of people love the costume and I think it's a really great way to draw attention to the serious issue about what's happening to animals in intensive farms in Australia," she said.

"Each of us has the power to make a difference here each time we sit down at the dinner table each time we go to a restaurant every time we make a choice on what we eat we can reduce animal suffering."

Lets hope theres no caterpillas going about!!!!
