Because the heart beats under a covering of
hair, of fur, feathers, or wings, it is, for that
reason, to be of no account? Jean Paul Richter

"The soul is the same in all living creatures,
although the body of each is different.
Hippocrates
4
Deliberate cruelty to our defenceless and
beautiful little cousins is surely one of the
meanest and most detestable vices of which a
human being can be guilty William Ralph Inge
5
"All beings tremble before violence. All fear
death, all love life. See yourself in others.
Then whom can you hurt? What harm can you do?
Buddha
6
"One day the absurdity of the almost universal
human belief in the slavery of other animals will
be palpable. We shall then have discovered our
souls and become worthier of sharing this planet
with them Martin Luther King Jr
7
All the arguments to prove man's superiority
cannot shatter this hard fact in suffering the
animals are our equals. Peter Singer

MILLIONS OF FUR-BEARING ANIMALS INCLUDING FOXES,
RACCOONS, MINKS, COYOTES, BOBCATS, LYNXES,
OPPOSUMS, NUTRIA, BEAVERS, MUSKRATS, OTTERS AND
OTHERS ARE KILLED EACH YEAR ON FUR FARMS BY ANAL
AND VAGINAL ELECTROCUTION, AND IN THE WILD BY
DROWNING, TRAPPING AND BEATING.
9
ANIMALS CAN LANGUISH IN TRAPS FOR DAYS. UP TO 1
OUT OF EVERY 4 TRAPPED ANIMALS ESCAPES BY CHEWING
OFF HIS OR HER OWN FEET, ONLY TO DIE LATER FROM
BLOOD LOSS, FEVER, PREDATION.
10
TO KILL THE ANIMALS WITHOUT DAMAGING THEIR FUR,
TRAPPERS USUALLY STRANGLE, BEAT OR STOMP THEM TO
DEATH. ANIMALS ON FUR FARMS MAY BE GASSED,
ELECTROCUTED, POISONED WITH STRYCHNINE, OR HAVE
THEIR NECKS SNAPPED. THESE METHODS ARE NOT 100
PERCENT EFFECTIVE AND SOME ANIMALS WAKE UP
WHILE BEING SKINNED.
11
You wouldnt club this, would you?
12
How come you allow this to be clubbed, then?
13
BABY SEALS ARE REPEATEDLY CLUBBED ON THE HEAD
UNTIL THEY BLEED TO DEATH. THEIR SKINNED BODIES
ARE LEFT TO ROT IN PILES, WITHOUT EVEN BEING USED
FOR THEIR MEAT. SHAME TO THE CANADIAN GOVERNMENT
THAT REFUSED TO MAKE THE SEAL HUNTING ILLEGAL!
14
PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of
Animals) have repeatedly contacted Jennifer
Lopez, Beyonce Knowles and Madonna sending them
information packs, photos, videos and complaints
about their fur obsessions. THEY HAVE REFUSED TO
STOP WEARING IT.
15
LOPEZ HAS BEEN REPETEADLY ASKED BY VARIOUS
ANIMAL ORGANIZATIONS AND MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC TO
EXCLUDE REAL FUR FROM HER FASHION LINE AND STOP
WEARING IT.

• THROUGH THE YEARS SHE HAS WORN THE SKINS OF
  EVERY POSSIBLE ANIMAL YOU CAN IMAGINE, ALTHOUGH
  SHE HAS BEEN SENT PHOTOS AND VIDEO FOOTAGE.
• SHE HAS BEEN IGNORING THE CHARITIES ON
  PURPOSE, AND HAS SHOWN AN IMPRESSIVE DISREGARD
  FOR THE PUBLIC.

She is currently considered to be the most
notorious fur-wearer in the show-biz, along with
Beyonce Knowles.

• When asked what she thought about animal-right
  organizations protesting, she replied I dont
  think about it at all

• PETA has even released a video game where you
  gather points by saving animals from her hands

• Beyonce was sent videos, polite letters and PETA
  even published a personal full-page open letter
  to her in Billboard magazine.
• Finally, two members won an EBay auction to have
  dinner with her. So they met her, along with her
  sister and mother (who is the dreadful
  inspiration and cause for her tacky fur-line)

• The charity members asked her Beyoncé, many of
  your fans would like to know why you dont care
  about how minks, foxes, and chinchillas are
  gassed, strangled, and electrocuted for vanity
  and if you might have it in your heart to
  recognize that fur is not only cheap and tacky
  but also horribly cruel?
• The members were asked to leave by security.
  Knowles, of course, insists on wearing fur,
  despite the amazing volume of hate mail her
  record company received.

Jennifer Lopez and Beyonce Knowles are currently
consciously promoting a fashion, that involves
that little animals like these
20
And these
21
End up like this

And this
23
And this
24
Madonnas luxurious chinchilla fur coat
required that 40 of these
25
Had to become like this
26
How DARE WE find excuses for this
27
How DARE WE PROFIT from this
28
How DARE WE JUSTIFY this
29
Oh yeah, it provides JOBS for people all right!
30
It brings food to many plates, all right!
31
To the people that made these GREEDY AND
ILLITERATE MONSTERS rich and still SHAMELESSLY
defend them
32
Ugly people with no hearts and lust for the buck
that some have the nerve to worship
33

• So, to the people that will shamelessly try to
  defend the fur traders, the fur wearers, and the
  killers
• To those that think that they are the superior
  beings on this planet
• And to the ones that DARE to ignore animal right
  defenders and call them names, like extremists
  (the extremists in the name of humanity have been
  thousands more)

34

• Here is what some of those naïve animal-right
  supporters have to reply

35
"

• Shame on such a morality that fails to recognize
  the eternal essence that exists in every living
  thing, and shines forth with inscrutable
  significance from all eyes that see the sun."
• Schopenhauer's criticism of his fellow man.

36

• "For as long as men massacre animals, they will
  kill each other. Indeed, he who sows the seed of
  murder and pain cannot reap joy and love.
• Pythagoras

37

• To insult someone we call him "bestial."  For
  deliberate cruelty and nature, "human" might be
  the greater insult.
•   Isaac Asimov, Isaac Asimov's Book of Science
  and Nature Quotations, 1988

38

• We have enslaved the rest of the animal
  creation, and have treated our distant cousins in
  fur and feathers so badly that beyond doubt, if
  they were able to formulate a religion, they
  would depict the Devil in human form
• William Ralph Inge, Outspoken Essays, 1922

39
Non-violence leads to the highest ethics, which
is the goal of all evolution.  Until we stop
harming all other living beings, we are still
savages.  Thomas A. Edison
40

• I have been studying the traits and dispositions
  of the "lower animals" (so called) and
  contrasting them with the traits and dispositions
  of man.  I find the result humiliating to me.
  Letters from the Earth, 1907
• The fact that man knows right from wrong proves
  his intellectual superiority to the other
  creatures but the fact that he can do wrong
  proves his moral inferiority to any creatures
  that cannot. What Is Man, 1906
• - "Of all the creatures ever made he (man) is the
  most detestable. He is the only creature that
  inflicts pain for sport, knowing it to be pain."
• MARK TWAIN

41

• People must have renounced, it seems to me, all
  natural intelligence to dare to advance that
  animals are but animated machines.... It appears
  to me, besides, that such people can never have
  observed with attention the character of animals,
  not to have distinguished among them the
  different voices of need, of suffering, of joy,
  of pain, of love, of anger, and of all their
  affections.  It would be very strange that they
  should express so well what they could not feel.
  
• Voltaire, Traité sur la toleranc

42

• If a group of beings from another planet were to
  land on Earth - beings who considered themselves
  as superior to you as you feel yourself to be to
  other animals - would you concede them the rights
  over you that you assume over other animals?
• Attributed to George Bernard Shaw

43

• The question is not, "Can they reason?" nor,
  "Can they talk?" but rather, "Can they suffer?
• Jeremy Bentham

44

• "A human being is a part of a whole, called by
  us universe, a part limited in time and space.
  He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings
  as something separated from the rest... a kind of
  optical delusion of his consciousness. This
  delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting
  us to our personal desires and to affection for a
  few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to
  free ourselves from this prison by widening our
  circle of compassion to embrace all living
  creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty
  
• Albert Einstein

45

• The animals of the world exist for their own
  reasons.  They were not made for humans any more
  than black people were made for white, or women
  created for men.
• Alice Walker

46

• "The greatness of a nation and its moral progress
  can be judged by the way its animals are
  treated.
• A good man is the friend of all living things
• Mahatma Gandhi

47

• DEATH is not fashionable
• DEATH is not luxurious
• DEATH is not profitable

48

• IF YOU DONT FORWARD THIS, IF YOU KEEP
  SUPPORTING THOSE THAT ENCOURAGE IT, IF YOU TRY TO
  JUSTIFY IT, YOU ARE EQUALLY RESPONSIBLE
• SAVING LIVES IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN UPSETTING
  STOMACKS
• PLEASE HELP US SAVE THEIR PRECIOUS, INNOCENT
  LIVES
