Ozzy Osbourne has designed a custom T-shirt in an effort to ban trophy hunting, joining other celebrities in a worldwide campaign.
The metal icon has teamed up with the UK organization The Campaign to Ban Trophy Hunting to raise money and awareness to abolish hunting for sport.
“Trophy hunters are totally crazy,” stated Ozzy. “You’ve got to be barking to kill an innocent animal and then take photos of yourself laughing about it.”
He continued, “We’ve all got to do our bit. I like to design things so I’ve done a t-shirt for the Campaign to Ban Trophy Hunting. The government said it would ban hunting trophies, so get on with it! Tell your MP you want it banned right now! Get yourself an Ozzy t-shirt for Christmas and help save the animals!”
Ozzy’s wife and manager Sharon Osbourne added the following statement:
“Ozzy and I are big supporters of the Campaign to Ban Trophy Hunting. We really hope everyone buys this t-shirt and help raise funds to fight these awful people. I can’t think of anything more sickening than killing an animal just for the fun of it and then putting its head up in your living room. I honestly thought those days had gone. Let’s make trophy hunting extinct, not wildlife. Support the campaign and tell the politicians you want the ban done today not tomorrow. We’ve done a special edition of personally signed t-shirts which will be auctioned off. It’s really important that everyone gets behind this campaign. Let’s give wildlife the best Christmas gift of all – a future free of these sick maniacs.”
Ozzy joins fellow celebs like comedian Ricky Gervais and actress Dame Judi Dench, among others, in designing a custom T-shirt for the cause.
