It's a Web site that probably even the most autocratic of high school principals wouldn't think to censor in the school library. But they'll wish they had when newly minted 15-year-old pleather-wearing, fact-sheet-waving PETA activists start lecturing them on the horrors of amphibian dissection.

The new People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals site for teens makes fighting for animal rights into a game, awarding points to the members of its "street team" for taking direct action. Order a few hundred "Cut class, not frogs" stickers, for 200 points. Plaster them all over your notebooks and locker, and send PETA a picture of your sloganeering handiwork: 1,000 points.

Oh, and when the other kids in your class are butchering pickled green once-hopping things, all in the name of learning, the site suggests spending the day at a nature preserve "observing frogs in the wild." Try feeding this line to your biology teacher when he asks why you skipped class: "You can learn way more from living frogs than from cutting up their carcasses."
