We’re used to [PETA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/animal-intelligence) using stars who’d rather go naked than wear fur, but now the [animal rights foundation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/humane-world-for-animals) is appealing to the badass guys by saying ‘Ink, not mink.’

The message is delivered with an [extensively tattooed Carey Hart](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/86-tattoo-limited-edition). The guy is considered to be the ultimate ’cool guy.’ He is a professional freestyle motocross rider, successful business owner, AMA team owner and reality TV star.

Carey Hart must have picked up the PETA love from ex-wife Pink who is an avid animal rights supporters.
