The Center for Biological Diversity has Paris Hilton in their sights now

Poor Paris.

Because her publicist
won’t do it,
someone needs to:

Tell Paris Hilton No!
Exploiting Wild Animals
Is Not Hip

Alleged singer and celebutante Paris Hilton, desperate for attention – any attention – has recently inflicted her lifestyle on a succession of exotic pets as a publicity ploy. 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.

A kinka-what? The kinkajou (Potos flavus), also known as the “Honey Bear,” is a nocturnal tree-climbing mammal related to the raccoon that lives in the rainforests of Central and South America. Although kinkajous may appear cute and cuddly, they are wild animals that belong in the rainforest eating tropical fruit, not ducking from flashbulbs on fashion runways or sipping lattes in the cafes and trendy clubs of Los Angeles.

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.

But unfortunately, Paris Hilton does not seem to understand or share these serious concerns – and it’s unlikely she will unless she knows a growing number of people think her “fashion statements” are barbaric and tragically unhip. Please send a letter today to demand that Paris Hilton stop collecting and exploiting exotic wildlife and that she immediately free Baby Luv, the kinkajou!

Send a letter to the following decision maker(s):
Ms. Paris Hilton

Below is the sample letter:

Subject: Stop Exploiting Wildlife! Return Baby Luv to the Rainforest!

Dear [decision maker name automatically inserted here],

Kinkajous belong in the rainforest, not in Los Angeles as a celebrity prop. Please stop supporting the illegal international wildlife trade and abide by state laws that ensure protection of wild animals.

I urge you to turn over "Baby Luv" and any other illegal wildlife you possess to an appropriate wildlife rescue organization. As a public figure, you also have an obligation to speak out against the destructive international wildlife trade and to promote keeping wild animals in their natural habitats where they belong.

Sincerely,

"Alleged singer"

Well at least they got something right!

Oh yea I’m sure this animal would much rather be eaten by a snake than hangin with Paris.

On second thought it probably would rather be eaten by a snake.

Kinkajous are beautiful animals and can make wonderful pets, since their personalities are often playful, yet docile and sweet. They are not destructive animals and have been known to be kept in the house without a cage. Kinkajous are generally quiet and docile, and they have no noticable odor. Because they are slow and languid, especially just after being wakened from a nap, they do not particularly like quick sudden movements. I have found them to be gentle and nonaggressive most of the time, although they can get wound up and become quite playful, and like to "dive bomb" and pounce on you from high places!
