Daniella Monet stars in a new PETA2 ad that encourages people to replace the fish on their plate with something plant-based.

Even vegetarians can be guilty of indulging in occasional fish or forgetting that the food technically does count as meat.

“Not a lot of people touch on fish and how important it is to eliminate that and keep that veggie diet,” Monet says in an interview in a clip that includes behind the scenes shot from the making of the ad.

“I thought “Why not do an underwater mermaid show and stress that you don’t need fish and let the fish swim with the mermaids.”

Watch Monet swim like a vegetarian mermaid and hear the entire interview below.

Daniella Monet PETA

Daniella Monet recalls the day she had to dissect an animal in class.

“The one memory I have, as far as dissecting goes, is in elementary school. I cried—a lot—and I was actually sent to the nurse’s office, and I used the phone to call my mom and say that I couldn’t do it.”

“It’s gross. It’s sad. I do think teachers should provide an alternative…And if kids stand up for themselves … it’ll definitely make a world’s difference.”

Hoping other adolescents won’t go through the same experience, Monet is posing in this PETA ad titled, “I Choose Not To Dissect.”

If you’re looking for an alternative to dissect for yourself, your child or students, you should know…there’s an app for that!

The Frog Dissection application by Emantras Inc. gives the educational experience of science class minus the guts and flesh of a real animal and having to fight with your ethics or the school board on making the decision to dissect.
