The Cruelty of the Fur Industry

Fur trapping is cruel. These traps are left in the woods by fur trappers, sometimes they are not checked for days. The animals caught in these traps sometimes chew off their own limbs to get away. If the trapper finds the animal in their trap still alive they kill it by beating or strangling the animal to death. Every year fve million cats, deers, dogs, and other animals are killed or injured by traps. These animals lives are taken in vain. The fur trappers do not use their pelts for their fur coats. Remember that wearing a fur coat advertises your lack of compassion. An animal's fur belongs on the animal NOT on people! Protest fur trapping.

Top Ten Reasons To Wear A Fur Coat

  • 1. You are so vain you don't care that it takes the bodies of at least 40 dead animals to make a fur coat.
  • 2. You are so cold-hearted you don't care that the steel-jaw trap that captured your fur coat may also have captured a child's pet dog or even a child's foot.
  • 3. You worship Cruella DeVil and wish Dalmations were more plentiful.
  • 4. You like the idea of having something in common with cavemen.
  • 5. You don't care that ranch farmed fur-bearers are killed by anal electrocution, poisoning, decompression and suffocation.
  • 6. It's your "right" to bring harm to other creatures as long as you think you look glamorous.
  • 7. Those baby seals would die from starvation anyway, so you might as well club them to death.
  • 8. You want your friends to envy you even though they really think you're despicable.
  • 9. You convince yourself there's a difference between wearing a stinky ole' mink and your pet Fluffy.
