FROM PROTECT THE WILD — STUFF THE TAXIDERMISTS IS WHAT I WOULD SAY

Forwarded this email? Subscribe here for more We paid a visit to the most vile shop in Scotland Taxidermied hunting victims, fox fur coats, racoon's tail hats and owl feather fishing hooks. DEVON DOCHERTY MAY 18 READ IN APP Last week, we were travelling down from some campaigning work in Inverness, and we passed a shop called The House of Bruar. We decided to go in for a look, and what we found shocked us. The House of Bruar is a high-end department store in the Scottish highlands, and it looks innocent from the outside. But step inside and you will find some of the most sickening displays of animal cruelty on the market. TAKE ACTION Real fox fur jackets selling for £1,150. Hats made with raccoon tails. Fishing hooks tied with the feathers and bodies of owls, hares, snipes and peacocks. Taxidermied animals displayed throughout the store like decorations - dead pheasants, stags and grouse turned into props for entertainment and profit. There was even a stuffed fox dressed in hunting gear, clutching a gun, as if to mock the victims of hunting and shooting. It’s absolutely vile that they think this is acceptable decoration. Wild animals are not ornaments. They are not status symbols. And they should not be reduced to lifeless displays to sell an outdated vision of “country culture.” No animal should end up skinned for a coat, turned into a hat, or mounted on a wall to entertain people. That’s why we’ve launched an e-action calling on House of Bruar to: Stop selling fur and feather products Remove taxidermied animals from displays Commit to becoming a fur-free, cruelty-free retailer, in line with the values of the vast majority of the British public House of Bruar has a choice. It can continue down the path of becoming a House of Horrors - or it can move with the times and show respect for animals. Please take 30 seconds to send an email today.
