Badgers are illegally hunted and brutally killed for their fur – only to
be turned into brushes. 

While major brands like P&G and L'Oréal have turned to kinder
alternatives, big retailers such as Amazon still sell badger hair
brushes. 

Tell Amazon: Ban all badger products from your platform.

John,

Amazon is selling cosmetic brushes made from badger fur -- a brutal
business that profits from sheer animal torture. These animals are stuffed
into filthy cages and left to suffer—starving, isolated, and finally
beaten to death, sometimes with everyday objects like chair legs.

Other brands and retailers like Procter & Gamble, L'Oréal, NARS and Morphe
have already removed badger and other animal-hair brushes from their
shelves. Together we can turn up the pressure and make Amazon drop them
too. Are you in?

Badgers are highly social animals that live in elaborate underground
burrow systems called setts. Some are centuries old and used by
generations of the same badger family, with separate rooms for sleeping,
giving birth, and a toilet area outside.

But on fur farms, these beautiful badgers have nothing to live for – no
burrows to create, no connections to build, no food to forage. They sit
and suffer in filthy metal crates, losing their minds. Their fate is truly
traumatising: heads bashed in, throats cut, left with untreated injuries
or cannibalising each other before dying slowly or being beaten to death
with random objects.

Despite synthetic alternatives to animal-fur brushes, these innocent
animals continue to endure horrific treatment for profit. But together, we
can turn global attention on this cruel business and stop the sale and
demand of badger hair brushes. Are you in?
