Carmen Geiss features a serpent in new photos, sparking PETA's response
In a recent turn of events, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has criticised Carmen Geiss for her participation in a "Jungle Party" and a subsequent photoshoot featuring a python on her Instagram profile.
The animal rights organisation has expressed concern over the treatment and stress inflicted on wild animals in such events, as well as the portrayal of animals as props for entertainment. PETA argues that such portrayals fuel the demand for exotic animals, often kept under catastrophic conditions.
The criticism centres around a photoshoot at the "Jungle Party" where Geiss was pictured holding a giant snake. In her post, Geiss commented that pythons are elegant, powerful, and decorative, comparing them to jewelry. However, this comparison was met with criticism, with many followers expressing disapproval of the photos.
Geiss's comment about cuddling wild animals also drew criticism, which she addressed in a comment on her Instagram post. Despite her intention to express enjoyment with cuddling wild animals, some found the photos distressing.
PETA claims that events like the "Jungle Party" cause stress for sensitive animals due to the unfamiliar environment and crowds. The organisation states that the use of wild animals like reptiles as party attractions is cruel to the animals and sends a harmful message.
PETA has urged the Geiss family, specifically Robert and Carmen Geiss, to stop using animals in their actions and to no longer attract attention through animal-cruel actions in the future. The organisation's appeal suggests that their actions are considered animal-cruel by PETA, but it remains uncertain whether the Geiss family will take these words to heart.
It's worth noting that, as of the current date, there is no publicly documented incident or backlash regarding Carmen Geiss and a jungle party photoshoot featuring a python as of the current date. If such an event or criticism did exist, it has not surfaced prominently in available German or international media indexed in this search.
This incident serves as a reminder for the importance of responsible behaviour towards animals in entertainment and the need for awareness about the impact of our actions on animal welfare.
Carmen Geiss's lifestyle, which includes participating in events like the "Jungle Party" and posting exotic pets on social media, has raised concerns about the treatment and stress inflicted on wild animals. PETA urges celebrities like Geiss to reconsider their use of animals as props for entertainment, as it fuels the demand for exotic animals often kept under inhumane conditions.
