Clothes with fur are very common and popular among many people, especially the young but we do not know how the fur (not synthetic but real one) is produced and sold.
As you know real fur is the fur of animals such as rabbits, raccoons, and foxes. Before I saw this video, I thought vaguely that these fur are produced by domesticating the animals just like keeping a caw on grasslands or having sheep in a field. The truth is, however, furs are produced mostly in China in an extremely cruel way without any consideration.
Some heartless people catch wild rabbits, raccoons and foxes and kill them by hitting them, stepping on them or just strike them against something hard. Those poor animals barely breathing but still alive have their skin removed violently by the humans. I could not see the fluffy cute animals bleeding from their body helplessly abused. You too surely would want to cover your eyes when you see it.
I am not sure whether all the clothes with fur are being produced like this, but it tells us a sad true story about them. We, consumers, are part of the blame because the business people sell those clothes because they sell well. In this world where capitalism dominates, there are no way to stop the attempt to make profit. In other words, however, customers can control the market by deciding to buy or not to buy the product after they investigate whether it is produced in a proper way.
What we see in a department store, or a clothing shop are part of the animals' body, which may have been robbed off very mercilessly. We have to know this fact first, and then take actions to realize what we think is right.
