Quiksilver Says NO to Angora Cruelty
June 2014
After talks with PETA at Quiksilver’s headquarters, the surf and snowboard company confirmed that it won’t sell any more items containing angora wool.
“Almost all of us grew up eating meat, wearing leather, and going to circuses and zoos. We never considered the impact of these actions on the animals involved. For whatever reason, you are now asking the question: Why should animals have rights?”
— Ingrid E. Newkirk, PETA President and co-author of Animalkind
