I probably don't mention my colleagues in peta2 as much as I should on this blog. This is primarily because I am jealous of their youth, their vivacity, and their general "too-cool-for-school" attitude. But sometimes they put something together so good that it can't be ignored (no matter how hard one might try), and their new "Fur Is Dead" campaign definitely falls into that category.

They've partnered with the folks at Skelanimals to help garner support for their "100,000 strong against fur" petition, and judging by the number of signatures so far (38,631!), the whole thing's going pretty well. You can check out the site here. The photo gallery of kids wearing the peta2 "Fur Is Dead" bunny ears is more or less fantastic.

As long as it's helping animals...most things (especially age), are irrelevant.

Anything helpful to the animals is fine with me, too.
Fur gives me the creeps unless its worn by its original owner!

Absolutely! As long as no more animals will be killed for their fur, then it's a great cause.

The fur is death should know these inhumane people to be put in place using fur in their products.

I watched a programme on fur on channel four the other night, it disgusted me, I'm still haunted. The fur campaign has been forgotten about by many, let's shout out!
