Animals used for clothing

Did you know that every year millions of animals are killed in name of fashion? Whether  they come from fur farms or slaughterhouses, you should know about an immesaurable amount of suffering that goes into every leather belt, wool sweater and fur jacket you wear.

Animals that come from fur farms spend their whole lives confined to dirty, cramped cages. Fur farmers use the cruelest and cheapest killing methods, electrocution,suffocation,gassing and poisoning.

More than half the fur in the U.S. comes from China, where millions of dogs and cats are beaten ,hanged, bled to death, and  skinned alive for their fur. Because chinese fur is often mislabeled,you can´t know whose skin you're in.

China  is the world's largest fur exporter, providing more than half of the finished fur clothing  that it's sold in the United States.Foxes, minks, rabbits, dogs, cats, and other animals are all the time in outdoor wire cages, with no shelter from driving rain, freezing nights, or the scorching sun.
Mother animals  are driven crazy because of the intense confinement , they have nowhere to hide while giving birth,so they kill their babies after delivering . Disease and injuries are widespread, and animals suffer from anxiety-induced psychosis that's why they chew on their own limbs and throw themselves against the cage bars.



Before they are skinned, animals are taken out from their cages, thrown to the ground, and beaten. Undercover investigators from Swiss Animal Protection/EAST International found that most animals are still alive and struggling desperately when workers hang them up by their legs or tails to skin them.

  1. I strongly and firmly agree to this blog that you have published. I just want to thank you for what you have done because by reading and watching this makes me see the pain and suffering fur animals all over the world go through.I will not wear any clothing made from fur again and will try to spread this sorrowful news to my fellow school mates, family members, young childrens, my face book friends and world wide. Again i just want to say thank you and i appreciate what you have done and i'm sure that the fur animals do too.
