U.S. movie star Pamela Anderson, on behalf of PETA, has asked Serbian fashion designers not to use animal fur in their winter lines. A great number of fashion designers already sent positive responses to Anderson, said Olivera Stankovic of Serbia’s Freedom for Animals. Anderson sent her letter now because designers are considering these days their fashion collections for the next winter. Andderson said she was writing on behalf of PETA, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, the Belgrade B92 radio reported. “Perhaps you are not aware of cruelty which is characteristic to the fur industry. A majority of animals killed are bred in farms, closed in cages which are slightly bigger than their bodies,” the letter said. “With that much violence in the world which is beyond our control, we beg you to stop cruelty which you can prevent yourself by taking a stand against fur,” she said. © Copyright 2006 by United Press International
