In PETA’s latest video Pamela Anderson security checks unwitting air passengers. From fur and leather to other animal skins: animal torturers will no longer be able to get away with murder with Pam around ! Pamela started her career in a red swimsuit in “Baywatch”; but now she stars – still going for the less is more look – alongside Andy Dick, Steve-O, Nina Hagen and Carol Leifer in PETA’s latest project: “Cruelty Doesn’t Fly”. Sexy Pam plays the role of a relentless fashion cop who points out the air passengers’ gravest fashion crimes – animal skins !

Our airports’ list of rules and regulations for travelling sky high is ever-changing, which can make boarding a plane a confusing process. But when it comes to animal friendly fashion, the rule is quite simple: Don't wear animals ! Animal skins are sometimes used in ways that you might not expect. Fur comes from animals, including rabbits, foxes, minks, and chinchillas, who spend their short lives in cramped, dirty cages until they are slaughtered, or they are trapped and beaten to death in the wild.

Fur farmers and trappers often use the cheapest killing methods: animals are suffocated, electrocuted, gassed, bludgeoned, drowned or poisoned. Many animals are still alive and able to feel pain when workers begin to rip the skin off their body.

The majority of leather is made from the skins of cattle and calves, but leather is also made from horses, kangaroos, sheep, lambs, goats, and pigs. Kid goats may be boiled alive to make gloves, and the skins of unborn calves and lambs - some purposely aborted and others from slaughtered pregnant cows and ewes - are considered especially "luxurious."

Other "exotic" animals, such as alligators, are mass farmed for their skins too. Alligators are often kept in overcrowded pools before they are butchered at around the age of 2. On these farms they may be beaten to death with hammers and axes, sometimes remaining conscious and in agony for up to two hours after they are skinned. GoSee wishes you a good flight!
