Banksy, the British graffiti artist struck again in New York City. His latest work is called "Sirens of the Lambs" and it involves a meat truck that was spotted in South Brooklyn and the meatpacking district this past week. The graffiti artist, political activist, and painter used stuffed animals in his latest piece of art to protest the meat packing industry.

For those who aren't aware of Banksy, he is a well-known and very popular street graffiti artist from England that is known for his unique and impressive art. Banksy is reportedly in the midst of a month-long stay in New York City and his various art pieces have been popping up around the city over the last couple weeks.

The notoriously private artist's work is so sought after, some local residents were reportedly charging people to take pictures and see his artwork, according to Yahoo! News. However, there was no need to pay to see "Sirens of the Lambs" which was driving around New York City on a meat truck. The truck was riding around with a bunch of squealing stuffed animals in the back. In the video below you can see, although harmless, the sight of the stuffed animals with their heads popping out of the side of the truck was upsetting for some children. It was an interesting sight to say the least.

It seemed at first there may have been some question as to whether or not this was Banksy's work, but it has since been posted to the "Banksy NY" YouTube page as well as Banksyny.com.

The artist's stay in New York City is called "Better Out Than In." You can go to his website to check out all his recent work in the "Big Apple." It's worth checking out because it's not only unique, but it's impressive.

Adding to the allure of Banksy's work is the fact that no one ever seems to know where his new art will pop up.
