About the Global Fur Trade
Each year, millions of animals are killed across the globe to supply fur for the fashion industry. Some animals are caught from the wild by cruel traps, while others are raised in cramped cages on fur farms. With so many attractive and sensible alternatives available, fur is simply unnecessary. Even purchasing the tiniest bit of fur trim supports a cruel industry.
“Fur? I am out of that. I don’t want to kill animals to make fashion. It doesn’t feel right.”
Donatella Versace, 2018
“I think that the fashion industry can get away with a lot and it is getting away with murder. Fur is the most unnecessary thing in the world. Those animals are not eaten, if they try to pretend that the fur industry products are by-products they are not. Those animals are bred to be turned into coats.”
Stella McCartney, 2016
