PETA Bear Cap Ad "MoD: Go Fur Free"
Another PETA ad has been pulled this year and it’s only the month of January.
The PETA bear cap ad was supposed to be shown on 25 London buses in an attempt to draw attention to the killing of black bears used for fur in making the Queen’s guards’ hats.
The ad showed a guard with a bear’s bloody head on his head with the tagline: “MoD: Go Fur-Free. It can take the entire hide of one bear just to make one cap.”
According to Media Company, the manager of the buses objected to the ad.
‘Tradition’ is no excuse for cruelty, and we plan to make this the year that everyone hears about how slowly the British military adapts to change,” said PETA’s Poorva Joshipura.
PETA wants the guards hats fashioned from faux fur.
