Joel Kinnaman calls for mink fur ban


21 04 2015

RoboCop star and Stockholm born actor Joel Kinnaman has teamed up with PETA to send a letter to Sven-Erik Bucht, Sweden's Minister for Rural Affairs, calling for him to shut down Swedish mink farms.

Kinnaman, who wrote 'PETA's recent video exposé demonstrates that fur farms are living nightmares for animals. Dead and dying animals were left to rot in the cages, while many of the living minks suffered from open wounds, often the result of cannibalism or self-mutilation', joins PETA supporters including Eva Mendes, Jude Law and Joaquin Phoenix.
