Kate Ford for Peta
Actress Kate Ford is fronting a new campaign for Peta, urging the Ministry of Defence to to replace the traditional bear skin hats worn by Buckingham Palace Guards with fake fur versions. Kate says: ""I would never have dreamed of posing nude, but when PETA showed me the footage of the bears being shot and skinned just for the sake of these ornamental Guards' caps, I decided to be brave and show some of my skin in the hope that the MoD will let the bears keep theirs", says Ford. "The cowardly hunters even bait the bears with food before ambushing them. When mother bears are killed, their cubs are left to slowly starve to death. This breaks my heart. I think it is despicable of the MoD to use taxpayers' money to fund this cruelty overseas when there are synthetic faux furs available."
