Well done Berkeley! Science has proven that fish can feel pain and experience a variety of emotions 🐠

The City Council in Berkeley (California) passed legislation that prohibits the use of goldfishes or betta fishes as carnival prizes. The bill specifically targets carnivals and fairs where winning fishes as a prize is a common practice.

California state law already bans vendors from giving out rabbits and birds as prizes.

These fishes are in extremely unhealthy conditions which contribute to the high mortality rates.

Gucci may have sent a $19,000 statement pink fur coat down the runway for Fall/Winter 2016 but those days are gone, according to the brand's CEO Marco Bizzarri, who was on hand at the 2017 Kering Talk at the London College of Fashion. On Wednesday, Bizzarri announced that the Italian brand i
