Quantcast Vegetarian StarPamela Anderson Israel

Pamela Anderson

Pamela Anderson is known for giving props to local food when visiting a country, and her recent visit to Tel Aviv was no different.

The actress was welcomed by several animal rights activists carrying tombstones that read, “Thou Shall Not Kill Animals.”

“There are a lot of really great animal rights [activists] here, really good, sympathetic people and I think they’re making a lot of progress even with passing this fur bill, which is a landmark bill and it’s very important for the rest of the world,” Anderson told The Jerusalem Post. “It just seems like everyone is very passionate [in Israel]. There’s not a lot of small talk – people really talk about important things and it’s really incredible the people that I’ve met. We have great conversations.”

Pamela Anderson Urges Israel To Ban Fur

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, November 8th, 2010 in Actresses, Animal Issues, Fur.

Pamela Anderson would like to meet with Jewish leaders in Israel to persuade them to ban the use of fur in traditional Hasic headwear, reports E! online.

Anderson is visiting the country as a guest judge for its version of “Dancing With The Stars.”

While stating that Israel was a “progressive nation” and an “example for the rest of the world,” the former Baywatch actresses said it’s time for a change when it comes to wearing animals to represent one’s sect.

“It’s almost 2011. There are so many alternatives to things,” she said. “We can be compassionate in our choices.”

A bill that would potentially restrict the use of fur in headwear has been placed on hold due to a large percentage of voters being Hasidic. But some anti-fur organizations have found a large majority of the Israeli public would like to do away with fur completely.
