Liam Cronin

In addition to writing for PETA Living, Liam works on PETA videos, manages the Action Center, and performs the gratifying task of responding to YouTube comments. He also volunteers occasionally with PETA’s remarkable Action Team (you should join), often charged with wearing animal costumes and waving to children. Liam got involved in animal rights gradually, starting in 2005 when he stopped eating meat for teen angst–related reasons and realized that he felt better in every possible way. Liam enjoys hanging out with his two dogs, Aiden and Bessie, watching Cincinnati Reds baseball games, and telling really long jokes with disappointing punch lines.
