Animal Rights Activists Vandalize Painting of King Charles III

A group called Animal Rising committed the act

On Tuesday, animal rights activists pasted a cartoon image over a portrait of King Charles III  at a London art gallery, the latest in a series of incidents at U.K. museums as campaigners use vandalism to publicize their causes.

A group called Animal Rising shared a video of campaigners pasting a picture of a character called Wallace, from the "Wallace and Gromit" comedy series, over the king’s head.

The so-called "comic redecoration" was designed to highlight an investigation that Animal Rising said found widespread violation of animal husbandry rules at farms approved by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
