The event titled “‘Bloody’ PETA ‘Reptile’ in San Francisco to Protest Hermès Horror: Live Animals Sawed Open,” was graphic. Hermès sell’s luxury clothes and accessories for women and men. They also sell’s items for people who like to ride horses. Hermès also sell’s jewelry and fragrances. In an article by CBS News the “Birkin Bag,” are made from alligator or crocodile animal skins. The “Birkin Bag’s, can sometimes be seen in the hands of people like the Kardashians, and range in price from $10,000 to $150,000. The bag is named after English actress and singer Jane Birkin, and her works are based out of France.
PETA has “documented workers at ‘Hermès suppliers’ crudely hacking into the necks of some alligators and then they scramble their brains with metal rods—all in the name of “luxury.” Some animals were still conscious, flailing and kicking, even minutes after workers tried to kill them.”
