Victoria Beckham asked to Reconsider Using Crocodile and Lizard skin
The singer Turned Fashion designer who is known for using alot of things' skin for her designs and products who recently was planning on using Crocodile and Lizard for her new handbag collection has been summoned by PETA. My Gosh Victoria, Lizard Skin?...Lets just pray she doesnt wake up one day looka her Husband and say 'Darling, Your skin would sell'
Spokesman for PETA David W. Perle said: “We appreciate Ms. Beckham's rejection of fur and have approached her -- 100 percent respectfully -- over the suffering of lizards and other reptiles who are often skinned alive for fashion.”The organization also appealed to Victoria to watch a video on PETATV.com showing how reptiles are killed and skinned.
The Video Shows
Exotic animals are mostly unknown to us and so is what they suffer to be turned into belts and bags. Every year millions of reptiles are slaughtered so that handbags, belts and shoes can be made from their skin. The animals’ welfare is not a consideration to those who hunt, poach and farm them.
“Hunters snare wild lizards and cut them apart with a machete, sever their heads and then skin them. According to wildlife biologist Clifford Warwick most of these lizards are still alive as the skin is torn from their bodies. You can help stop the suffering. Anything that you have that is made from animal skins can be made without. With so many stylish and cruelty-free alternatives there's no excuse for wearing animal skins.”
I dont like Reptiles but I dont think any animal should treated in this way just in the name of Fashion
