Fur labeling and your right to know

Consumers have a right to know. Unfortunately, the fur industry is banking on your ignorance. And retailers including Bloomingdale's and Bergdorf Goodman are flouting the law. Get the facts about fur trim and deceptive fur labeling in this video from the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS). An HSUS undercover investigation a few years ago demonstrated that major retailers were selling items trimmed in fur from the raccoon dog from China, a major exporter of fur destined for the United States and a place of horrific torture of fur-bearing animals. Raccoon dogs often are skinned alive.

Retailers are going fur-free!

An important milestone...and more to come
The Humane Society of the United States has important news about its Fur-Free Designer and Retailer List. It has hit the 100-mark, with the recent addition of Overstock.com, and not long before, BCBG went fur-free. Great news!
Check this list often and make informed purchasing decisions.
Say no to ShopNBC, one of the more bloody purveyors of cruelty. It's even more despicable for the fraud it perpetrated on its customers, by reneging on its fur-free pledge. On the other hand, HSN just went fur-free!
