I mean the process to make the fur is horrible. They kill dogs, cats, and other animals with fur and make it into clothing or just the trim of a jacket. You may think its just like a bear but its actual a mixture of common domestic and wild animals so you wouldn't be able to tell which is which.
They set traps and still do fur trading basically. They trap animals by cruel traps that snap on their necks and when the trapper comes to the animal they will literally step on its head or neck or back wearing boots on top of it until it suffocates and dies a horrific death.
my question is, knowing how cruel fur is, don't you think its wrong to wear fur? also theres the factor of you can wear it innocently disregarding how its made although knowing.
Do you think it's wrong?(not judging)

Yes! I think it's horrible that people would kill animals simply for the sake of fashion... For food is a different thing because that is essential to survive, though it is not essential to eat meat which is why i am a vegetarian...lol but I know i can't expect everyone in the world to become a vegetarian....Also, if that happened, the whole natural cycle would get pretty screwed up. Anyways, I believe the fur process is cruel and it is highly unnecessary nowadays for animal fur to be used as clothing. Also, it seems kind of ridiculous at times because of the prices and everything. It's like saying "Oh! you're an elite?, congratulations, you get to wear a dead fox."

I don't really think it's wrong. I don't mind wearing my leather jacket but that's just making use of what's left over from our hamburger in the grocery store. If they were to wear the fur on the inside to keep them warm it would be great! I don't agree with slaughtering other animals just for their fur. We need to take some lessons from the American Indians. They didn't waste one single part of a buffalo!

A few weeks ago a local tv station showed how they abused animals in some countries...I felt so bad!! I never have bought a fur coat, and I never will. Ithink they need to stop making fur coats.

yes, i do think it's wrong
(unless they were using the fur from an animal that was being used for other purposes
like, if an animal's meat was going to be eaten,
then it would be resourceful to use the fur as well
unfortunately, that's hardly ever the case)

Using Fur is being disgraceful, although many posh superstars and billionaires still like the touch of fur to their skin and although so many campaigns are going on against the use of fur, its not really stopping completely. There should be a LAW against using fur... Then it will surely stop...

I think it's totally wrong to wear fur. Fake fur looks and feels just as real, if you're into that kind of stuff. I'll stick with my nylon and cotton jacket.

i am veg and i would never even think of wearing fur. but how ca you compare eating meat to wearing fur?? they are two totally different things. eating is nessicary(sp) to live so if animals need to be killed for food thats fine. but fur is a fasion statement not a need. wearing fur is like wearing an inferior humans skin. is that right??
FUR IS MURDER

Sometimes, I mean..it looks nice and all but, it's still an animal.
I'm mainly against it because it's cruel and senseless. I'm no Peta freak, but you don't NEED to wear fox (or whatever animal)...however...you gotta eat :o!

It's horrible. Why would you ever need/want to wear fur?! It doesn't even look good. Maybe if you were an eskimo or something...
