Fur still pops up on runways now and then, but it’s now illegal to sell in California andNow, PETA’s goal is to make other animal-derived materials like wool, leather and down as unacceptable as fur, pointing to practices like live plucking and calling out the conditions in which sheep and cattle are farmed, transported and slaughtered.
“When we look at where the largest number of animals suffer the most, food is top of the list, but next is clothing,” said Newkirk. “We’re here to change the industry.” But many of those new materials are in the relatively early stages of development. They’re often expensive, produced in small quantities and unable to match the quality of leather unless they contain hefty quantities of plastic. Vegan alternatives for wool are even harder to find.
But PETA argues the industry is just as cruel. While brands often point to responsible farming standards to claim the materials they use were raised ethically, the animal rights group says these certifications don’t count for much. Its campaigns include harrowing and shocking imagery and stories of mistreatment.
