Pamela Anderson pleads to Prada to drop fur

OHMYGOSSIP — Pamela Anderson has called for Prada to drop all fur immediately.
The 51-year-old actress-turned-animal rights activist has appealed to the luxury fashion house to remove all animal pelts from their lines at once, instead of the “gradual reduction” the brand has opted for.
In a letter, she wrote: “I have long admired your creativity – and Prada’s timeless nylon bag – but I was disappointed to learn that instead of going fur-free, Prada has chosen merely to reduce the amount of animal pelts that it sells.
“A ‘gradual’ reduction is no consolation to animals who are languishing inside tiny cages on fur farms and being anally electrocuted and skinned alive for their fur right now. Please, I urge you to drop fur immediately. ”
The ‘Baywatch’ star went on to explain that there is no such thing as humane fur and claimed even organisations which promise to kill animals in a benign and compassionate way have been investigated by PETA, who found “cruelty is rampant”.
She said: “‘Humane fur’ is like ‘merciful murder’; it doesn’t exist. Even in countries that participate in the fur industry’s Origin Assured programme – which claims that animals are treated ‘humanely’ before they’re slaughtered – investigations by PETA and other animal-protection groups have repeatedly shown that cruelty is rampant, as you can see in this brief video [from PETA].
“Consumers know that there’s no ‘kind’ way to kill animals for their fur, and leaders in the fashion industry have taken notice – including Burberry, Giorgio Armani, Versace, Gucci, Michael Kors, Ralph Lauren, Stella McCartney, and many others that have banned fur.”
