Animals suffer for pageant prizes
October 4th, 2007 by admin
Whoever is crowned Miss Florida Teen USA this weekend will win a fur coat provided by pageant sponsor, the Fur Information Council of America. ARFF will encourage the winner to put the horrible prize to good use, by giving it back to animals. ARFF gives donated furs to wildlife rehabilitators who cut the furs up into an appropriate size and use it to warm and comfort orphaned and injured wildlife.
You can help
Contact the Miss Florida Teen USA Pageant and let them know that you are disappointed that the Fur Information Council will be providing prizes for contestants. Ask them not to include fur in future pageants.
