Jamie Bamber Gets Shirtless for Bears

Jamie Bamber is half-naked in the latest People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) ad campaign. The "Battlestar Galactica" hunk does such kind of action in order to help the animal-rights organizations, particularly for saving black bear population.

"I initially decided to do the PETA ad because a great friend of mine in L.A., Lucy Davis, had just done a similar ad, and I love Lucy and it was a cause I didn't know about ... I'll be honest," he shares at PETA official blog. "So as soon as Lucy opened my eyes, I was thrilled to join her and do my bit."

The 35-year-old British actor mentions that using fake fur is the way to preserve the animals. "The obvious alternative [to real fur] is to make caps out of faux fur," he explains. "You know, use synthetic materials to avoid killing a beautiful animal. They're not to keep warm. It's not particularly freezing outside Buckingham Palace. You could wear something else. And you could certainly wear faux fur."

Jamie Bamber, whose real name is Jamie St John Bamber Griffith, is a British actor. He becomes famous for his role as DS Matt Devlin in the new "Law & Order: UK" and "Battlestar Galactica".
