PUMA Bans Fur and Exotic Skins

Published by PETA Staff.
< 1 min read

Following discussions with PETA, PUMA—one of the world’s largest designers and developers of sports footwear, apparel, and accessories—has pledged never to use animal fur, wool that comes from mulesed (i.e., mutilated) Australian sheep, or exotic-animal skins. How appropriate that a company named after one of nature’s most beautiful animals would help protect so many others!

— Ingrid Newkirk, PETA Founder and co-author of Animalkind
