Category: Exotic Skins

No sensitive living being should be crammed into a filthy pit and hacked apart while still alive.

Behind every Prada ostrich-, crocodile-, or alligator-skin bag is a short, miserable life of deprivation and a violent death.

South Coast Plaza shoppers stopped and stared as two bodypainted “crocodiles” hung out of a purse that read, “Louis Vuitton: A Look That Kills.”

PETA—an LVMH shareholder—was denied the opportunity to ask a question of board members at the Louis Vuitton parent company’s annual meeting.

These nearly naked “crocodiles” represent the hideous lives and torturous deaths that reptiles experience at Vietnamese exotic-skin suppliers.

Outside Michael Kors’ New York store, PETA urges the designer to discontinue the use of furs and exotic skins and asks shoppers to boycott the line until he does.

We don’t mean to brag, but a number of PETA pals are Grammy nominated this weekend.

Try not to step in the big pool of blood or smack into the giant purse.

Over 32 million people learned how crocodiles are raised and killed for “luxury” leather products sold around the world.

After hearing from PETA India, lawmakers banned the skins of reptiles as well as many from chinchillas, minks, and foxes from entering the country.
