Boycott Buying Fur from Fur Traders in China

Boycott Buying Fur from Fur Traders in China

The Issue

There are fur farms in China where animals are kept in small cages and are raised solely for their fur. Workers at some farms beat the animals and slam them against hard surfaces, which often doesn't kill them, before they hang them up and skin them alive. The animals are then tossed aside and left to die a slow, painful death. The furs are then sold to other countries. This needs to stop.
