Killing animals for there fur is a big thing, and its a huge industry in China. China is the biggest fur industry in the world followed by many other places in the middle east. China is the biggest offender because there are no laws there to stop the inhumane slaughters.
There are many furs that people wear that we don't think about really, like; Leather, exotic skins (snake, crocodile), wool, beavers, chinchillers, dogs, cats, foxes, minx, seals and birds.
In lecture this week we had the big debate about weather fur is good or not. We were given statements and had to research the statement and back it up, our groups was "We Don't Need Fur Animals Do"
800 animals are rammed onto one truck to the fur farms, then thrown 10ft from the top off the truck to the ground, shattering there leg. Some of the animals have collars around there necks from when theyve been stolen from homes.
They are packed into small cages of 52 square cm. They can't do anything natural to tthem, they are forced to live in there own excrement. The animals go insane from the cages, the frustrasion leads them to self mutilate, pacing round in circles and cannibalisation.
Cages are positioned in either dark sheads where the ammonia of the animals accumulate, their urine and feeces burning their eyes and making it hard for them to breathe. Or the cages will be lined up outside in the freezing winters, in the lashing rain, or the burning sun with no protection.
The mother animals have no where to hide whilst giving birth, and from being crazy they offen kill and eat there litter after.
Killing is so inhumane, there are many methods of killing so that the fur isn't damaged. sometimes even rods are put into the animals' anus and mouth and electricuted until cardiac arrest. Then when the furs are ripped from thier bodies, their half alive bloody bodies are thrown onto a pile of others; with the horrible sound of helpless gasps.
