In Volgograd, 15 people attend action to protect animals

In Volgograd, people held an action in protection of animals "Beauty Requires No Victims". According to organizers of the action, workers of the shopping centre and sellers of leather and fur clothes tried to oppose the activists.

The action was sanctioned by the authorities, and it was attended by 15 people. This was told to the "Caucasian Knot" by Tatiana Ryabinova, an organizer of the action, the coordinator of the Centre for the Protection of Animal Rights "Vita".

"In our hands, we were holding very big posters with pictures of animals on fur farms," the activist has reported. And she continued: "The posters showed close shots of snouts of mutilated animals with inscriptions reading: 'Your fur coat had a face', 'You're wearing death', and 'Beauty Requires No Victims'."

The action was organized near the shopping centre. According to Tatiana Ryabinova, workers of the shopping centre have damaged one poster and tried to force the protesters to leave the place officially sanctioned for the action.

"We also faced counteraction from owners of pavilions selling fur clothes. One woman behaved very aggressively, insulted us and tried to overturn our posters, and we had to protect each poster from the counteraction of those people. One of the policemen tried to move us to another place to prevent disturbing the trade pavilions, although we were standing at the sanctioned place," Tatiana Ryabinova has said.
