"Maybe we could even make animal rights activists into clothes -- if they didn't look so unpleasant."

Please, if you can't stand fur sign our petition to facebook!

Why do we hate fur?

More than 50 million animals are violently killed for use in fashion every year.

Methods used to kill animals for their fur include gassing, electrocution, and neck breaking. Fur-bearing animals are also caught and killed in barbaric body-gripping traps.
Neither fur nor fur trim is a byproduct of the meat industry. Rabbit fur is often falsely identified as a byproduct of meat production. The truth is, few rabbit skins are obtained from slaughterhouses, which more often dispose of the undesirable pelts of rabbits bred to make meat. Fur comes from animals who are factory-farmed or trapped purely for fashion.

The fur trim market is an equal, if not greater, threat to animals than is the making of fur coats. Fur trim is not what%u2019s %u201Cleft over%u201D from making full-length fur coats. Thousands of animals are killed simply to provide trimming effects for fashion. Even purchasing the tiniest bit of fur trim supports the cruel fur industry.

CAT AND DOG fur can enter the U.S. market undetected and be sold as fur trim. While there is a ban on the import of domestic dog and cat fur in the U.S., the animal%u2019s fur may be mislabeled or the item may be valued less than $150, and thus not be required to carry a label identifying the source of the fur.

Fur %u201Cfarms%u201D or %u201Cranches%u201D are not humane alternatives to trapping. The terms are euphemisms used by the fur industry to describe confinement facilities in which fur-bearing animals are caged and killed. Currently, there are no federal laws providing protection for the millions of animals held in these factory-like farms.

Seals are still being clubbed and brutally slain for their fur. The Canadian seal hunt is the world%u2019s largest remaining commercial slaughter of marine mammal; close to a million harp seals were authorized to be killed between 2003 and 2005. The use of seal fur in fashion is a contributes to this massacre.

The fur industry is a threat to our environment and wildlife, contributing to higher energy costs, pollution, land destruction, and reductions in populations of wild animals, including endangered and threatened species who may be accidentally trapped and killed.
