Every Christmas I have bought my aunts gifts from Talbot's. But through my research about wool, I found that Talbot's continues to get its wool from Australia, where cruel mulesing mutilations continue.
Here is my letter to Talbot's:
Dear Trudy Sullivan,
I have always been a regular shopper at Talbots during Christmas time, but this season I will not be in any of the stores. I was extremely disappointed when I learned that Talbots continues to get its wool from Australia, where cruel mulesing mutilations continue. Clearly there is nothing fashionable or elegant about cutting the skin and flesh from lambs' backsides, whether it is done with gardening shears or with clips that pull large chunks of skin tightly together until it rots off weeks later. As a compassionate consumer, I urge Talbots to make the responsible decision to stop sourcing wool from Australian sheep who have been mulesed either with shears or clips immediately.
Sincerely,
Kate Wallace
