There is already a buzz surrounding Citizen-Initiated Ordinance 308, going before Denver voters in November, before ballots were sent out.
The ballot measure would ban the sale, manufacture, trade and display of new fur products in city limits.
Looking around the Rocky Mountain House Rabbit Rescue, Natalie Fulton explains the roles rabbits play in many lives as the third most popular pet in the United States. Fulton is a spokesperson with Pro-Animal Future , a group of over 150 volunteers fighting for the Denver fur ban.
“308 is an important step towards needing the cruel, unnecessary and outdated practice of killing animals just to wear their fur, it will be on the ballot this November, and Denver voters have a chance to vote against some of the most egregious animal cruelty that takes place in the city by voting to ban fur,” Fulton said.
Fulton explained how this ballot measure is aimed against unnecessary animal abuse and follows in the footsteps of other countries who have banned fur.
