Random 1980s anti-animal-cosmetic-testing question

Do you guys remember during the 1980's there was a big push against cosmetic testing on animals?

There was a particular group, might have been PETA or something, that used a rabbit with the symptoms of cosmetic testing as it's mascot.

I think it was a guy dressed up as a rabbit with inflamed runny eyes and rashes on it's skin (I remember having nightmares about it when I was 5 - so around 1988-1989)

I want to find a pic of the mascot but I can't remember WHO the group was.

Ring a bell?

Sorry, no. I remember the campaign, but the name escapes me too. I doubt it was Peta because that's more recent.
