Kate Middleton and Prince William's recent pictures from their family ski vacation might have wooed many, but they ended up upsetting PETA.

PETA U.K. was not pleased to see the Duchess of Cambridge wearing a pair of Restelli Guanti gloves lined with possum fur, reports E Online.

Mimi Bekhechi, the director of PETA said that if the gloves are indeed made of real fur, they will be contacting Middleton, who they imagine is unaware that possums killed for their fur are often caught in bone-crushing steel-jaw traps.

Meanwhile, according to an online portal WhatKateWore.com, the Duchess has been wearing these particular gloves since 2008.
