Animal rights activists have covered themselves in fake blood and stripped naked in a busy square in Barcelona
News24xx.com - For saved the animal, animal rights activists have covered themselves in fake blood and stripped naked in a busy square in Barcelona. The demonstration was organised by Anima Naturalis, the international non-profit which campaigns for animal rights in Spain and Latin America.
The activists lay down in Plaça de Catalunya, with one holding a sign reading "How many lives just for one coat?"
The demonstration was part of a campaign to protest the use of fur and leather in consumer goods. The UK has made fur farming illegal, however the practice still continues across Europe and the rest of the world.
Photographs from the demonstration show activists lying on top of one another. They appear motionless as if to resemble dead or dying animals.
According to animal rights organisation PETA, more than 85% fur sold around the world comes from farm facilities where, minks, foxes and other animals are locked in cages for their entire lives before being killed and skinned.
For the first time this September, London Fashion Week featured no real fur on its runways.
Among the luxury brands to have recently gone fur-free are Armani, Coach, Versace, Michael Kors, Gucci and Burberry. They have been joined by Chanel, which announced earlier this month it would be banning fur and exotic animal skins such as crocodile, lizard and snake skins.
