Ask Designers to Stop Selling Seal Fur

Ask Designers to Stop Selling Seal Fur

The Issue

 

The Canadian Seal hunt brutally kills hundreds of thousands of baby seals each year. Many of these seals are often less than 3 months old yet they face an unnatural and bloody death. They have their skulls bashed in, hooks forced into their eyes whilst they are dragged across the ice and are skinned alive. Certain so called 'fashion' chains think it perfectly acceptable to sell Seal fur as they can make huge profits from the fur. Designers including Gucci, Versace, Prada, Dolce & Gabbana, Annika Heinadottir, Birger Christensen, Petit Nord, The Odette Leblanc Collection all use or have used seal fur in their collections. 

While all seal imports have been banned in the European union, these desginers have many markets in Asia and the America's where they can legally get away with selling baby seal coats and skins. Please take a moment to sign this petition to tell these companies to start living in the 21st century otherwise they face further consumer boycotts against them.
