Rebel Creamery - Pull The Ad Promoting Illegal Cruel Dumping of Pet Domestic Rabbits!

The Issue

(This petition is not raising funds, please do not donate.)

It appears TDA Boulder Advertising has despicably created an ad for Rebel Creamery promoting the Illegal Cruel Dumping of pet domestic rabbits in the wild.  After a child dumps her baby lop bunny and cries, screaming sounds of a predator attack are heard while the ad portrays Rebel Ice Cream can make it all feel better. 

It is illegal to dump domesticated pet bunnies in the wild. Dumping a domestic bunny in the wild is setting him to a death sentence; they have no wild instincts to survive and are vulnerable to starvation, dehydration, diseases, RHDV2 virus, parasites, attacks by predators (wild and human) and being killed by cars.  Animal rescues and shelters across the country continue to be overwhelmed with unwanted rabbits and the dumped rabbits continue to suffer and die from being dumped in the wild. 

We the petitioners respectfully request TDA Boulder and Rebel Creamery immediately pull this incredibly appalling, irresponsible and despicable ad that promotes cruelty to animals and illegal pet dumping practices.
