Stop Violently Ripping Fur Off Live Goats to Make Cashmere Clothing

Target: U.S. clothing retailers

Goal: Stop the cruel treatment of goats in the cashmere industry, as revealed by recent investigations.

Recent revelations regarding the cashmere industry are nothing short of alarming. Investigations conducted by PETA Asia have brought to light shocking footage depicting goats screaming in pain while being subjected to extreme cruelty in cashmere production. Workers are seen pinning the helpless animals down, twisting their legs, and tearing out their hair with harsh metal combs, causing bleeding wounds and immense suffering. This disturbing abuse occurs not just during the hair extraction process, but culminates in the violent slaughter of goats deemed no longer profitable.

Further emphasizing the consequences of the cashmere industry is the message shared by actress Torrey DeVitto, who advocates for the protection of goats and urges the public to choose cruelty-free alternatives. As a guardian to two rescued goats, she highlights the emotional bonds mother goats form with their kids, asserting their right to live free from fear and pain. The reality that these animals endure such distress for the sake of fashion is a testament to the urgent need for systemic change within this industry.

This cruelty must not be tolerated. The protection of animals should be paramount, and change is necessary to safeguard goats from this reprehensible treatment. Demand U.S. clothing retailers refuse to source cashmere from unethical producers.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear U.S. clothing retailers,

Disturbing revelations about the cashmere industry cannot be overlooked. Allegations brought forth by PETA Asia suggest that millions of goats suffer unimaginable cruelty, enduring severe pain as their hair is forcibly torn from their bodies. These acts leave the animals with bleeding wounds and induce significant distress, raising serious ethical questions about the treatment of these sentient beings in the name of fashion.

Advocates like Torrey DeVitto are taking a stand against this inhumane treatment, reminding us that all mothers, including goats, deserve to nurture and protect their offspring without fear of violence. It is imperative that we stand against animal abuse in the cashmere industry.

We urge you to take immediate action by implementing stricter rules to ensure unethical cashmere is not being sold to U.S. consumers. Let’s work together to ensure animals can live free from suffering, and support the movement toward cruelty-free fashion choices.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]

  1. I may be mistaken, but I thought that cashmere was obtained by shearing goats. Are these farms just abusing their goats for fun?

    For goodness sakes..how would they like it if their hands and feet were tied up and every single hair from their bodies were yanked out one by one. Can’t imagine they would…so STOP!!! this cruel and barbaric act NOW!!!

    This has always been referred to as sustainable, but it has never been. It is cruel, heartless, and extremely painful for the goats, and many freeze to death as they are stripped of their fur in the cold months. Having your hair forceably removed by the root is extremely painful, bloody, tears the skin, with no thought of how it hurts the goat, the shock, repair to the skin and how they throw around the goat in the process. They are also hit in the head, tied down, forced to be pinned down, their screams and cries mean nothing to the workers, no garment is worth this torture!!!!!
