If you're wearing uggs, there is.
Every year, millions of sheep are castrated, have their tails cut off, and have their throats slit—all for the sake of boots.
But that's not all.
The Humane Society International has just released the results of tests on several items—including ugg type boots—showing that the fur labeled as "Australian sheepskin" was actually raccoon dog fur.
Should I remind you what happens to raccoon dogs who are killed for their fur?
How can you stop this? NEVER purchase any product—boots, coats, sweaters, belts, purses … you get it—made out of animal skin. And share this information with your friends!
This video made me cry. And I'm not usually one to cry over little videos. But I hope you people feel ashamed. From what I've seen, you have no soul.
i hate boots like that!
I had to stop the video.. i could barely watch thirty seconds of it… what kind of person does this… )':
I would never wear uggs. Thier just plain UGGly
Sooooo true! Any animal skin that isn't on the animal is uggggly!
I never have and never will buy or wear uggs or any blood on my feet! I find it even more interesting that they were falsely advertising their products as Australian sheep skin.
oh this is so horrible. i cant even watch video, seen apart and wanted to cry =(
WHAAAAAAAAT?!?!?!?! i never would wear uggs or any animal skin anyway, but to lie about the product being sheepskin when it's from a RACCOON?!?! wtf?!?!?! people need to get a grip. seriously.
It's a wonder how they would have gotten away with this! But so many companies are using false advertisement in hope to get more customers and make money, the greedy bastards.
No uggs for me! Yuck!
I can't even watch more than 10 seconds of the video. How can they laugh will beat them? I'm so sad.
oh dear god…P:…
who could even have the heart to do that…and then laugh…_._
I physically feel sick now.
oh my gosh, this made me cry. This is soooo horrible. These people should feel terrible for what they're doing. This is my main reason I will NOT wear clothing/shoes made from animals..it just is not right.
Je n,achete pas le fourrure ou produits de cuir vraie. Il y a assez de materiaux artificielles et plus belles! Et j,ai fait le propagande contre le achat et porte les produits de source animaux!
i cannot fucking watch that…im literally sobbing at it…gotta be the most horrific thing i've ever seen…
I hate uggs, but liked the idea of short warm boots, thats why I wear 100% vegan boots called fuggs from iron fist plus they are cuye.and animal free. No animals should ever suffer especially.for some peoples.choise.in.fashion!
WHY? WHAT KING OF PERSON DO THINGS LIKE THAT KILLING THIS POOR ANIMAL AND TAKING THEIR SKIN ALIVE, PLEASE STOP THAT!
I CANNOT FINISH WATCHED THE VIDEO BZ I STARTED TO CRYING,
I couldn't even finish this. I don't even know what to say. I wear toms in all seasons. I don't care if my toes are cold, ill never support these cruel people.
& they laugh????? serial killers waiting 2 happen; that is if ther not alredy!!!!! sick bast****!
I would never wear any animal product!! Why have any animal suffer, when there are so many "faux furs", just make sure they are really "faux"!!!!!!!!!
i am so sorry that this is happening..these poor animals. we need to make everyone aware so that they can stop buying ugg. it is not worth it. the boots aren't even that cute, in fact they look funny. it's just people get obsessed with the brand. if they only knew the death that was associated with these boots. boycott 'em people!
Nope! Nothing screamed to be on my body!
This is disgusting…
Thank goodness i NEVER wear Uggs. I think they're ugly…what a horrid thing they do just to make boots.
Thank God I never put these on.. I couldn't bare the thought of watching the video.. based on the comments, I'd probably be sobbing within the first few seconds. I'll definitely never wear uggs. I never really liked them anyways, and I'll warn other people. Same with those chicken feathers.
ok, so I know obviously manufacturers of these things lie about materials on their labels, so does that mean they would lie on a label about there being no animal skins or fur used? saying its fake when it isn't?? how do you know for sure on a product? What can you trust? And what are words that we should look for that mean animal skins but we wouldn't recognize it as normal use in our language?
I have watched this video before and it makes my skin crawl. How can a person cause such cruelty on any living being? There is something wrong with people(not humans) if they can perpertrate these types of torturous acts. I do not wear Uggs and I will tell everyone I know NOT to purchase them. PLEASE stop these murderers!!!
Also I do not call these people humans, since the word "humane" is part of this word. I can't think of these people as humane!
Wow, why do you need boots like that anyway? They're just going to get ruined when they get wet, and I'm perfectly fine with artificial fur. O_o
Damn them!
this is probably one of the worst videos ive ever watched in my life! couldnt even make it to the end…
oh God i can't stop crying! I hate all those people who got dare to do such an awful things! we must be leather- and fur-free!
MORT A TOUS CES MONSTRES QUI MARTYRISENT DE PAUVRES ANIMAUX INNOCENTS. C'EST IGNOBLE, ABJECTE. QU'ILS MEURENT EUX AUSSI DANS D'ABOMINABLES SOUFFRANCES, C'EST TOUT CE QUE JE LEUR SOUHAITE
support!
i never worn fur.. and i know for sure. i check what i buy to see whats its made from…this is just another reason not to wear fur…i cant even finish this movie…its so disgusting…those poor poor animals…people who did that must have "PROBLEMS"
how could anyone do this to those animals… Im crying at this…. I watched the whole thing crying all the way through, I have always thought uggs were ugly, but to lie about what it really is made of is …. idk if there is even a word bad enough to label it as…………………………………………… I just want to tell everyone and show them this… all the preppy chicks that I use to go to school with… I bet they woudl never even touch an ugg again…
EW OMG.

print+hand them out please!
I try to watch these undercover cruelty videos all the way through when they crop up, disturbing tho they are– its the animal that suffers, the least (very least) we can do is bear witness– but this one I had to turn off. Please tell me there's a big campaign mounting against the companies that buy and sell these boots. It's perfect timing with the holiday season coming up. Ugh my stomach is in knots.
that is just ridiculous there is no place in hell for people like that.
Oh my gosh that video was horrible! I couldnt even watch the whole thing, poor raccoon dogs :'( I heart really goes out for them
WTF did I just watch? This is the most horrible thing I've ever watched in my life. Is there any way we can do something to try and put a stop to this? I don't care if these animals are wild or not. They still feel everything horribly done to them. The only reason I can come up with as to why they don't kill them before pulling their skin over their head while they are still freakin' breathing is, they want to see these animals suffer. And then throw them away while they are still alive, skinless? These are not people. I don't know how to classify them, but I don't consider them one of us. I feel barbarians had more consideration than these…things.
Uggs, how long do you really think you can sell your product to us Americans? We do NOT believe in cruelty to animals…..sheering wool, one thing, it grows back but skinning these poor animals, shame on you. From this second forward anytime I see anyone wearing UGG boots I'm going to ,ask them how they like wearing tortured animal skin on their feet. If we have our say we will not only boycot YOU but any company that sells your filthy products. UGG is a really good name for your company. UGG, how stupid do you think we are!
F*cking humans have no soul. That's what crucifixion looks like. I don't even want to wear faux fur because it remind of a real one.
Meh… I just died a little.
those poor innocint cretures! i used to want uggs, but now, im never buying them and never will
THIS IS SO SAD
All during this, I wished that they would just put them out of their misery, at the very least… But these aren't people, they're monsters. They're the ones that should be skinned alive.
