Yep, it is a publicity stunt--to gain attention for the animals who are cruelly killed for fur.

Animals skinned for fur come from two places—fur ranches and trapping the animals in the wild. On fur ranches, animals lead miserable lives confined in small, filthy cages. They are cruelly killed by being gassed, suffocated, or by electrocution. They are electrocuted anally or through the mouth so that the blood doesn’t ruin the “clothes.”

Trapping animals in the wild for fur is not any more humane. There are many traps used to trap animals. One common trap is the steel-jaw leghold trap. This trap closes with bone-crushing force onto an animal. The animals often try to chew their own limbs off to escape. The traps also catch our companion animals such as dogs and cats. These traps are dangerous to children.

Unfortunately, the media only responds to fur demos if someone is naked. It's not PETA's fault. They are trying to get attention for the animals any way they can. It's better than fur not being in the news at all.
