Ricky Gervais is joined by Succession’s Brian Cox and Lorraine Kelly in his campaign to halt ‘sickening, cowardly and deranged trophy hunters’
Some of Britain’s biggest stars have teamed up with Ricky Gervais in his campaign to raise awareness against trophy hunting.
Succession star Brian Cox and Lorraine Kelly joined him in wearing T-shirts featuring a print of an elephant on it, along with the organisation’s logo and Ricky’s signature.
Each year British hunters contribute significantly to the number of endangered species such as lions, elephants, and polar bears.
In an attempt to bring attention to the issue and drive donations, the Office actor has designed an exclusive clothing range.
The T-shirts and hoodies, made from organic cotton, are produced using renewable energy.
Passionate animal lover Brian Cox is also involved in the project
Lorraine has also hopped on the hype and proudly brandishd her campaign T-shirt
Showing her support, Scottish TV presenter Lorraine shared a snap of her in the t-shirt on social media.
She wrote: ‘Proud to support this campaign! @rickygervais has designed an EXCLUSIVE T-shirt in support of the Campaign To Ban Trophy Hunting – CBTH.
‘It’s a DISGRACE that UK hunters can kill elephants for fun & import their sick “trophies” back. Help Ricky #BanTrophyHunting.’
As it stands, current legislation allows hunters to import animal remains into the UK for taxidermy or decorative trophy displays.
