More Information...

Short Description:
Examines opinions regarding buying and wearing garments made entirely of and trimmed with fur, as well as agreement or disagreement with positioning statements related to fur. This was a follow-up survey to The Fund for Animal's 2003/2004 anti-fur advertising campaign in New York City.

Abstract:
This survey was conducted to measure response of a anti-fur campaign sponsored by the Fund for Animals.
21% have heard about the fur debate in the last 6 months, which is an increase from a survey taken the previous year.
Older women (40-50), those with college degrees, and wealthier women were less likely to have heard about the fur issue.
Advertising awareness of the issue increased significantly as 32% of women had some familiarity with the campaign over the last 6 months., which is an increase of 8% of the previous July.
41% noted exposure to messages via television, while 21% were most familiar with print ads.  Outdoor signs were noticed by 14% and radio was a source of exposure to 4%.
