Dev was featured in an advertisement released by [[PETA]] critical of the conditions in, and practices of, Indian [[zoo]]s. Rahul volunteered for the ad, in which he appears in spotted bodypaint to resemble a [[cheetah]].

Dev described zoos as "nothing more than [[animal]] [[prison]]s maintained for human [[amusement]]." "If you love animals, let them live with their families in the [[wild]], where they belong." "Protecting species from [[extinction]] sounds like a [[noble]] goal, but zoo officials usually favour [[exotic]] or popular animals who draw crowds and publicity, neglecting less popular species. Most animals housed in zoos are not [[endangered]], nor are they being prepared for release into natural habitats. The best thing to do to stop this [[cruelty]] is to urge your friends and family to [[boycott]] zoos." <ref>http://www.petaindia.com/0302devzoo.html</ref>
