Chinese Fur Farms
The reality of fur is that it most likely came from an animal on a fur far who was brutally killed by either electrocution, beating, gassed, or poison, or by drowning, trapping, or beating in the wild. Millions of fur-bearing animals including foxes, raccoons, minks, coyotes, bobcats, lynxes, opossums, nutria, beavers, muskrats, otters, and others are killed each year.
The fur ads you see in magazines and commercials portray fur coats as fashionable, and a symbol of elegance. But these ads fail to show how the original owners of these coats met their gruesome deaths.
Chinese fur farms are among the most cruelly run of the fur industry- the video below is an undercover investigation and shows animals being skinned while still alive and fully conscious. CAUTION: VERY GRAPHIC.
Pledge to go fur-free at PETA.org.
Don’t wear fur. Let animals keep their skin.
