If your in canada, most fake fur is cat and dog. In the US they claim to not allow Chinese furs to be sold, but some famous ppl like J-LO and PUFF DADDY got away with it.
I think it's fucked up but for some reason people don't think so, in fact they encourage it and fly into rage or denial when you try to tell people about this stuff.
It takes like , maybe 20 minutes more of work to check labels and ask the store clerk where something is from and or what it is made out of.
Evidence that there will be no 'revolutions' or 'utopias' as long as we all have an attitude where things like this are alright because I'm to lazy to do or buy anything else.It breaks my heart, but so many people don't care enough to do anything about it, even choose not to buy the product.

i can't imagine why people want real fur, anymore, in our day and age? The idea of hanging a dead animal around your neck is a very Viking thing to do, perhaps, but more suitable to Halloween parties and pagan orgies than fancy dinner parties, I think.

Yeah in the past fur was needed to keep warm. Nowadays there's so many alternatives.

What's your stance on the seal culling that goes on every year in Canada?
There's always Bardot and stuff but what does the general public have to say?

It's crazy, Canada has some shitty laws in terms of animal rights, THOUGH a new bill was just passed that will tighten animal cruelty laws in the aggro sector. ON PAPER it sounds good, but I'm sure they'll just have their way with whatever their want anyway.
Personally, I'd like to see NF and other seal hunting areas find another niche to sustain their economy. Will that happen ? No.
It's all money. They feed pigs cement in some places to ... SAVE MONEY. They skin dogs and cats alive ... to SAVE MONEY.
It's insane, for what too ? I have an awesome winter jacket I bought for 90$ and it's fake as shit. Isn't that good enough ? If Canada produced it's own synthetic furs, we could make our own jackets and boots, be warm , and create a few jobs in the process.
I went to 3 malls looking for boots that were not made of animal and they were all pissed off at me for even requesting such a thing. Anyway I don't want to rant and preach , but I think the only thing to do is show people this stuff, learn about more of it, and not support it.

real fur is lovely if my clothing is made from fake fur I like to take it to the tailors and have them replace it with real fur.
we are top of the food chain the wearing of animal pelts sends a clear message to tigers, lions and sharks that we will remain on top!
