Champions On Ice Star Champions Seals

For the most part I’m not much of a sports kinda girl, although I do love hockey. And of course there are certain Olympic events that I like to watch—and not just for crashes and injuries although they do heighten the excitement—like ice skating for example. I was super into it when I was a kid. I think most little girls go through that phase but I’m not sure why. Anyway, I loved watching Surya Bonaly skate because she was always such a badass and rightly so, she’s actually the only figure skater to land a back flip on one skate. So I was super stoked to find out that the French “Champions On Ice” star was anti-fur and doing not one, but two anti-seal hunt ads for us. Check ‘em out.

Pretty cool—no pun intended. And just so you know, Surya hasn’t lost her spitfire attitude, during the photo shoot she was asked by a young fan, “But isn’t fur so pretty?” to which she replied, “Yes, my dear, you have pretty hair, too—but does that mean we should cut your head off and wear it?” Oh, that Surya! Right now you have the chance to voice your opinions about the Canadian seal hunt. Please sign our petition asking for an immediate end to this barbaric slaughter once and for all.

    YES! Surya Bonaly kicks a*s!! I loved watching her skate when I was still a skater… And I still do today, especially now knowing that she’s also anti-fur! Good to see that she’s letting people know that figure skaters are more than just pretty faces.

    Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.

    Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.

    Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ

    I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!

    I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.
