Sheep Are Kicked and Beaten for Wool, but It’s Easy to Help Stop This

Many people aren’t aware that sheep are kicked, punched, thrown, stomped on, cut to shreds, and then killed when they’re no longer useful to the wool industry. PETA has exposed cruelty to sheep at more than 100 large-scale operations around the world, and farms that claim to be “sustainable” and “responsible” are no different.

Being an advocate for sheep is easy. Help inform your community about the truth behind the wool industry by passing out a bundle of leaflets as part of your next shopping trip!

Grab a friend and pass out leaflets during your next trip to the mall. Changing public opinion about wool starts with information, and sheep need you to advocate for them.

All you have to do is smile and offer a leaflet. If someone wants to know more, use these talking points:

  • We’re asking shoppers to scratch wool off their shopping lists and to choose instead from the many warm, luxurious, and durable vegan materials available today.
  • Many people have no idea that in the wool industry, sheep are routinely kicked, beaten, and cut to shreds while being shorn and then killed when they’re no longer useful. They endure this abuse even on farms that claim to be “sustainable” and “responsible.”
  • Please stop buying wool and anything else that was stolen from an animal.
