Where: We'll be at the Gallery , 11th and Market (in front of the Burlington Coat Factory)
Contact: Rowan Morrison, rodeo.edu@gmail.com and 610-733-1248
Comments: It's 2009 and animals are still being killed for clothing. There are many other options to keep warm then using fur bearing animals for clothing. Whether it's a coat or fur trim it still all spells death for millions of animals. Now our best friends cannot escape the fur industry as dog and cat skins are used for coats and trim.
It's not elegant, beautiful or sophisticated to wear fur. It only says an animal was violently killed for his skin.
Let's educate consumers about the fur industry so they won't wear or buy fur. Help to end the suffering and violent deaths of minks, rabbits, opossums, beavers, raccoons, foxes, Karakul sheep, and many other kinds of animals.
See you there!!!
