Is fake fur ok? like stuff that looks like fur but isint real fur?

Of course, but just make sure people know that it's fake! We have "faux fur" pins at peta.org if you're interested!

And while homeless kids are cold, PETA needs donated clothes for demonstrations. Not too mention they probably don't know the animals are usually hunted and shot ( not that bad). Or if we stopped culling deer herds they'd turn to other animals, or didn't hunt hogs in farms they would be paying astronomically higher prices for veggies. Do you want to pay 2x more for food? Becuase the farmer needs to pay there bills.

Hey there, we've actually donated furs to the homeless in the past. Most of the animals used for fur are farmed (like the animals farmed in our Chinese fur farm videos).

I think wearing fake fur will do more harm than good. People who see it don't realize its fake and will go for a real one just to look as "fancy".

We think people are realizing that the alternatives to both are not only cheaper, but far more compassionate.

Why is wearing fur and leather such a huge issue now?

[animallover386]

I hate all who wear fur and like/love people who wear fur! They don't have a life

[poderos reinando]

most of animals are electrocuted and they really suffer to have their fur taken off, if you do some research you'll be shocked with the way they die, believe me, it's horrible

Despite the rumors, we don't advocate throwing paint or destruction of property of any kind. We work for effective and compassionate advocacy to stop this cruel and unecessary product.
