From another list. This really sucks. Target doesn't need to see these items. Fur is a barbaric practice that is unnecessary. Please read and act. It's very simple. We've done most of the work for you.
Target is selling rabbit fur trimmed hats, gloves, and hair clips as well as fabric hats with rabbit fur woven into them. I contacted them last year, and I see they are selling rabbit fur again this year. I brought it to the attention of my store manager, and he didn't have a clue as to the cruelty involved in these items. He gave me a number to call the buyers, and I also obtained mailing addresses. I called guest relations and mailed a very detailed letter to the buyers with copies to the district managers. I would really like to get on their case about this.
