PETA models, Edita Stasiuleviciute (Left) from Lithuania and Katie Doherty (Right) from Co.Kerry, covered by an ostrich "corpse" and carrying an handbag-shaped signs during PETA protest against the use of exotic skins in fashion accessories in front of Hermes widow outside Dublin's Brown Thomas store. The action comes on the heels of PETA's release of the first-ever exposé of the highly secretive industrial ostrich-slaughter industry, where young ostriches are kept in barren dirt feedlots until they are trucked to abattoirs. There, the 1-year-old ostriches are turned upside down in a stunner, are ejected to have their throats slit, and have their feathers plucked out, creating the bumpy-textured or "goose bump" skin used in Birkin and Prada bags and other "luxury" goods. Dublin, Ireland, on Thursday, 21 April 2016.
