Kolek planning to go pro
What becomes leather is coming from an animal that is also being killed for food (necessary fir sustenance). It’s using the entire animal. Mink, foxes, chinchillas, nutria, they are killed only for their pelts and nothing more.
Some of my best friends are mink farmers, trust me they also use the whole animal. Mink carcasses are rendered and used in various different things including pet food. So if you have a cat or dog, you've probably been feeding them rendered byproducts from an animal that was harvested for its fur.
Next, they should ban green dresses.
But not a real green dress, that's cruel....
i worked on a mink ranch on weekends thru high school. a lot of hard work, but so much more interesting and different than any other job i had. i can attest to what turtle had to say. fur is a renewable resource that it just so happens that some place a value on it
Does this change opinions?
No. Clothing made of fur is still unnecessary and the result of cruelty to animals.
No. Clothing made of fur is still unnecessary and the result of cruelty to animals. Besides, my cat's food is imported from Italy. No mink parts in there.
Unnecessary to whom? You? By all means don't buy fur, but why should a fur coat be any different than any other farmed resource? Why should your lifestyle choices or preferences be forced on anyone else?
Not specific to mink/fur, but don't we do this all the time?We kill about 35 million cows a year for food, but horse slaughter is outlawed. Because horses are better looking.
That's quite the carbon footprint for cat food. No mice where you live bruh?
Brazil also bans fur, aina?
