Holland's Queen Beatrix has received a letter from Pamela Anderson calling for a complete ban on fur farming. Writing during a visit to the country, the actress - a staunch animal rights campaigner - praised the country's stance on fur farming but asked for more action to be taken.

In an open letter published on her website, the former "Baywatch" star wrote: "I was thrilled to learn from PETA and Bont voor Dieren that Holland has banned several kinds of fur farming, and I hope you will consider enacting a ban on all types of fur farming."

"The majority of Dutch citizens are opposed to wearing fur, and a ban on fur farming would be such an enormous inspiration for other countries and animal lovers around the world."

The actress is in Holland attending a luxury goods trade show, the Millionaire Fair, and says she hopes she can encourage more people to opt for fur-free products.

She added: "I hope my presence at the Millionaire Fair will encourage people to consider that you can have a look that kills without killing, and that nobody should support the idea of gassing, strangling, or electrocuting animals - especially for a luxury item."

"I hope the next time I visit will be to celebrate a complete Dutch ban on fur farming."
