Kim Kardashian is being slammed by PETA for wearing fur, according to Radaronline.com on March 5.
The mom-to-be was spotted wearing a luxurious black fur stole in Paris on Monday and has ignited a firestorm criticism from PETA, again.
“Children of greedy, self-absorbed parents could follow their lead or they could break away and be alienated from and disgusted by them,” PETA spokesperson Wendy Wegner told the website when asked if the "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" star's obsession with fur could be passed down to her child.
“Kim is a commodity; she is paid to wear things like fur, a particular makeup, or to shake hands with dictators, so she is not a good example to a child or anyone else of how to show a social conscience,” Wegner added.
“Thankfully, this child will be growing up in a time when most people know how blatantly cruel it is to buy a coat made from someone else’s skin, so there is hope.”
“Youngsters naturally identify and empathize with animals – so even though Kim and Kanye will undoubtedly serve as poor examples when it comes to kindness toward animals, perhaps their child will take after aunt Khloe and choose kindness by rejecting fur,” PETA says.
Kardashian – who was flour bombed by an activist last year at a red carpet event - has been blasted by the organization for wearing a pair of thigh-high Christian Louboutin python boots, which retail for $5,495 and are reportedly banned in California.
The reality star has also been panned for wearing a Dalmatian-fur coat, which PETA says is illegal to sell in California and “immoral to sell anywhere else.”
