Kim Kardashian Is In Trouble With PETA Again After She's Spotted With Crocodile Birkin Bag

At first glance you'd think that Kim Kardashian didn't have a care in the world.

Just look at her - chilling on a yacht in a leather-look swimsuit and heels (natch) doing her best Bond girl impression.

It wouldn't be the first time the star has locked horns with the animal rights organisation, Kim was flour-bombed earlier this year by an activist linked to PETA.

As a result of the attack Kim's sister Khloe, who was a strong supporter of PETA and even posed for them naked in a campaign, parted ways with the organisation. PETA denied having anything to do with the incident despite offering to pay the activist's legal fees.

In a statement, PETA said: “For every alligator or crocodile-skin accessory, an animal was likely beaten but still conscious and able to feel excruciating pain as his or her skin was peeled off.

“These animals feel fear and pain and they don’t want to die. Alligators and crocodiles have no real legal protection, but they have done nothing to deserve the violent treatment that they endure.

“PETA urges consumers to watch Joaquin Phoenix‘s video expose of the cruel exotic-skins industry and vow today never to buy items made from the skin of alligators, snakes or crocodiles.”
