The artist Banksy, in his own inimitable way, is forcing New Yorkers to think about livestock, and the transportation of livestock, with a project called Sirens Of The Lambs. How? With a transport that has stuffed animals peeking through the slats and making squealing noises. It is being driven around the Meatpacking District for two weeks.
Good one, Banksy.
This is good but it would be even better if Banksy had not painted the elephant Tai pink and used her in one of his installations. Tai is owned by Have Trunk Will Travel, which was exposed a few years ago by Animal Defenders Intl for their training methods.
