I make short films under Rusty Spatula Productions and experimental music as Anubis Rude.
Knock off Uggs are made with the pelts of Chinese raccoon dogs rather than than the sheep skin found in authentic Uggs. In order to pass the savings for these counterfeits on to the customer, the raccoon dogs are tortured and murdered in a mind-blowingly horrific fashion.
In this horrific youtube video, it shows the very slow process of how they are skinned alive which usually starts from the feet(paw)-up, giving the animal plenty of time to endure the pain. One investigator recorded a skinned raccoon dog, tossed onto a heap of carcasses; it had enough strength to lift its bloodied head and stare into the camera.
SIGN THIS PETITION TO STOP THE USE OF RACCOON DOG FOR UGG BOOTS IN AUSTRALIA!Reblogging again. The petition is less than four hundred signatures shy of making its goal! It only takes a minute. <3
FUCK!!!
FREE THE TANUKI!!!!! DON’T WEAR TANUKI ON YOUR FEET!
I couldn’t even watch the beginning of the video before I felt disgusted and on the verge of crying. I can’t believe how...
i wanna wear the animals not the shoes
THIS JUST ADDS TO THE REASONS I HATE UGGS and THE PEOPLE WHO WEAR THEM.
1) either way you’re still wearing UGGS and therefore are a bad person because UGGS are horrible. 2) Sheep are sheared,...
Uh Hang on. So it matters if Racoons are used to make these boots but not if sheep are?
This is awful. If you wear these boots you need to watch the video. It’ll change your mind.
Genuine UGG boots actually use raccoons as well, it’s not just knock-offs… This is a picture taken from the UGG UK...
That video made me cry. /:
