If one of certain strings exists in the URL, do something and stop the loop

Question

I have this code below but I want it to stop going through the loop once it finds one or more strings. That way the div will still be hidden.

Thanks for the help!

var checkURL = ["fish","dog","cat","bird"];

for (var i = 0; i < checkURL.length; i++) {
    if(window.location.href.indexOf(checkURL[i]) > -1) {
        // keep div hidden
    } else {
        // show div
    }
}

break;

Will get you out of the loop once you've found what you needed.
