Dear Nellie O,
Thank you for standing up for harp seals and demanding an end to this truly hellish situation.Even though more than 120,000 caring people voiced their outrage to Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper, the Canadian government has sided with the killers.
The hunt of baby seals began today.Despite this disgusting development, we cannot give up. We must redouble our efforts to protect harp seals and end their slaughter. Together we will continue to fight for seals and all other animals who are killed for their fur until the fur trade is stopped in its tracks. That is a long-term commitment that requires constant, unfaltering work.
While the Canadian government is responsible for allowing the slaughter to resume this year, it's the furriers and their cohorts in the fashion industry who are ultimately profiting the most from the slaughter. It's only by educating both designers and consumers about the true cost of every fur and fur-trimmed item that we can hope to see an end to the killing of seals, minks, foxes, raccoons, and other animals who are murdered for their fur.In recent months we have made huge progress working with the fashion industry.
Our victories for animals include convincing Tommy Hilfiger, Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren, and other leading retailers and designers to stop using fur in their fashion collections.We have also revealed to millions of consumers exactly how terribly animals' lives are ended and how they suffer.
Media coverage of PETA's demonstrations and riveting ads featuring Simon Cowell and others are spreading our message that there's no excuse for fur.To be successful in stopping the fur industry, we need your continued help:
Start at home: Never buy or wear fur, not even the smallest bit of trim, and encourage everyone you know to do the same.Be outspoken: Learn polite and effective ways to engage people—even fur-wearers—in conversations about this cruel industry.Tell the fashion industry to stop: Support our campaign to end fur sales by major fashion retailer Burberry.
Working together we can end this horribly cruel practice, make fashion fur-free, and save countless animals' lives. Thank you. For all animals,Ingrid E. NewkirkPresidentThis message was sent to Nellie O Apple Q.
