About this Petition Petition Letter Petition Updates

"Etsy is more than a marketplace: we're a community of artists, creators, collectors, thinkers and doers." That's their quote. When we start using animal paws as jewelery, what next? As a wildlife rescue - I work hard educating the public on being kind to our fellow creatures, this steps beyond what is right. I understand hunting etc but to hang dead animals from your neck and being sold as art is horrible.  Here's the link - I could not make you look at these:  http://www.etsy.com/listing/81478746/lucky-squirrel-paw-necklace?ref=sr_gallery_25&ga_search_submit=&ga_search_query=squirrel&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_ship_to=US&ga_search_type=handmade&ga_facet=handmade
