Activists Tell Paris: Quit Monkeying Around
One might guess that “no” isn’t a word Paris Hilton hears very often…that is, until now.
TellParisNo.com was recently launched in protest of Paris Hilton’s posession of a pet kinkajou monkey, which, according to the site, is a crime. The following is from a statement made by the animal-rights group:
“The latest victim of Paris’s affections is a captive ‘pet’ kinkajou cloyingly named Baby Luv, which has appeared in public draped across Paris as if it were the latest fashion trend,” reads a statement posted on the site. “Fortunately, the state of California recognizes the serious threats that the international wildlife trade poses, both to wild animals from other countries and to U.S. species when these animals are imported and then abandoned or released. Due to these threats, it is illegal to import or possess kinkajous or other wild animals in California without a valid permit.”
The site also states that Paris has been contacted by The Center Of Biologocal Diversity, which has urged her to turn Baby Luv in.
