After watching this video I felt petrified...I seriously couldn't talk and it seriously scarred me emotionally..I was browsing when I found this. It was at a website against Animal cruelty and so-on and it showed a video of fur collecting. I never knew fur was made like this. It seriously changed my whole point of view towards fur and how I look at it. Is seriously just want to barge in there and slap all those people who even thought of this. They couldn't even give the animals a quick shot so they wouldn't have to go thru ALL that pain! I really hope this can be stopped but I'm sure it can't because I'm only one person although I did try to spread the word. This will seriously scar you and if your faint of heart or real quuesy then you shouldn't watch it but if you could try to..

I seriously hate it when people go on these animal rights sprees because it's all bullshit and a waste of time. I'd kill every dog on earth before I killed human being. I hate it when people can't seem to understand that we didn't get to the top of the food chain to eat lettuce and cabbage. Eat some meat and wear some fur coats because they're by far the warmest coats, and quit bitching about it. They didn't poison the animals because it's too expensive to do that, i don't see the big deal about it, get over it.

I saw nothing wrong ... then again, "Hostel" and "Saw" made me laugh. [lol]
Quit complaining about animal rights. They are animals, meant for human use and dominion over and that is even biblical. Stop complaining. Geesh.

Oh whatever...I still felt it was wrong...what if humans were put in that postion and animals were actually skinning you? Heck I wouldn't want to be in that place..I mean I'm not saying I'm over protective over animals because I eat lots of meat(My favorite is beef and chicken) and the way they crushed their heads with their own weight seriously was too much. I mean they are living things for god sake, atleaast they gotta put them to sleep first and not grab them and throw them on the floor like some kinda of ball..Seriously though, you've got to have no heart if you think killing an animal is nothing. For example, if any of you has pets that you LOVE to death and I actually went to your own house and started killing them by throwing them on the floor and skinning them, How would you feel?(And BTW I'm not those kind of people you actually think I am because I wouldn't go thru all that just to get them to stop but it's wrong to jsut kill animals like that!!You must be some kinda of psychopath to think watching an animal bleeding himself to a painful death is entertaining..)

If it wasnt for killing animals for thier fur and meat where would the human race be now? I see people complaining over people making a living doing this, but I dont see people complaining about Eskimos killing animals and using thier fur to keep warm...it's evolution baby!

I don't know why people have a problem with stuff like this. Like Edge says, if it wasn't for the human race doing this to survive, there would be no human race now would there? It is a completely natural thing that happens and that we need to accept that as a race humans need to do this.

I would find it entertaining to watch a person bleed to death if I didn't know them in any way, so watching an animal bleed to death is quite honestly laughable. There is obviously a point where it crosses over a line though, there is a difference between killing an animal for it's fur or meat, and torturing an animal, because there is no need for that really, not that it would particularly bother me to see it, as it doesn't affect me in anyway shape or form.

Animals dieing, is a good thing [:)]

I disagree with all of you on this subject.[:)]

Sure we had to kill animals to survive when we was back in the stone age or whatever the hell it is, but today we live in a world where we don't have to kill a animal to make a coat for some bitch stuck up their ass. The thing is, other materials have been "invented" which allow us to keep warm and also keep the animals good and well. This was the idea wasn't it? As you can cleary see in this video we are not talking about the animals being killed for meat. This is for fur and I personally think it's a disgrace for this to happen.

This fur goes onto some rich bastards coat. Thats not evolution, that's selfishness and shame.

It is still part of surviving though to be honest, think of all the animals that are killed for their fur on farms like this one. Then think of all the animals that those animals would have spawned and then all the animals those animals would have spawned and so on and so forth. Killing animals needs to be done, to stop the planet being over run with a particular animal. Now there is nothing really to kill humans, mother nature comes up with other things, such as Cancer and gays.... it's just population control, stuff needs to be killed for other stuff to live. I agree that in that video they could have been a little more friendly, shall we say, but either way, as a race we have to kill animals, otherwise we would be over run with them and would die out ourselves from lack of food, etc etc...

100% Agree! I would understand survival but people, come on! They are killing animals for their own entertaiment! I mean the human race is smart enough to know that we already have other solutions to warmth, I mean HELLO! We are in the 21st century and we have cotton, linen, and wool coats already and they were not made by killing animals! Unless we were dieing because we had no coats and the only choice was a fur coat from a innocent dog or raccon than that would be the time to grab a few fur coats but this is just too much. All of you are saying that we need animals for our own survival but I dissagree. Yes, back then we did need animals for our own survival but this is NOW. We are not talking about stone caves and fire lit lights. We have cozy homes already and heaters in our own house I mean for God sakes! If we're gonna kill animals just for looking good then were obviously the stupidest living things in the universe. We don't need furry coats and that is just a waste of stupid time! Not only that but people are going to then sell it to a stupid rich dumb ass who has no life and has no heart.
I understand the fact that we might get over run by animals but some animals are getting extinct thanks to our own kinda. I'm talking about whales, pandas, and more! Many people cherish seeing those animals and if we are going to ruin it for the furture by killing animals who could one day be extinct then we're definately being selfish. One day when people will be requesting more fur coats there will be NO MORE! And why you may ask? Because we have killed all of the animals that give us these useless piece of shits. If you've seen the video you've seen the amount of animals that were there and there were way too many captive. Now if anyone still dissagrees then go ahead and argue, but I doubt that whatever reason you have, it is weak. And those who thought watching the video was entertaining and funny. Well try that on your pet..I'll be laughing then..

I agree with what this person is saying but, growing up around a farm I also see the other side. I agree with killing an animal as long as you use it for meat...to kill an animal just for its fur is just wrong. Plus if you are are going to kill the animal, do it in a way that they aren't going to feel it. This video just about made me sick. I mean skinning an animal while it's still alive?!

No, you're totally wrong. It's more like using the areas resources to your advantage to overcome an obstacle. It has nothing to do with a weaker animal getting killed or one being selected over another for mating because of traits.

Okay first off, find me a material used in coats that is warmer than fur that isn't a microwaved heat pack or something. If you seriously hate seeing this so much, then why don't you join PETA or something with those other retards and grow up to be a nice and strong terrorist. Like I said before, we didn't get to the top of food chain to bean sprouts or some stupid poop.

Second off, you're being quite the hypocrite talking about your loving of meat. Slaughterhouses usually have an assembly line of death where some guys job is to slit cows throats all day long while they're hanging upsidedown and moving along a "disassembly line" in this case.

Ya know, more and more I am becoming convinced that there ought to be a sarcasm label used before a response -- especially when the naturally clueless cannot see it and respond like dribbling n00bs.

I am not talking about stupid bawking chikens or retarted cows here, I am talking about dogs, raccoons, and wolves and such! Other then fur, we don't need the animal so that's ONE wasted animal life for something stupid as a fur coat so I have no shitty idea where your going. Chickens or w/e are easy to breed and we DO NEED them unlike the fur we DON'T NEED. If you think a stuffed jacket with a sweatshirt on and baggy pants can't keep you warm then you must be one skinny person. With a simple sweat I can still keep warm in the 30 Degree morning so I don't know what your talking about by saying "that is warmer than fur that isn't a microwaved heat pack or something" because you can keep warm without that stupid useless piece of crap known as fur. BTW you better stop being rude and if you want to start a flame war do it at your own useless time because that isn't what I'm going for. I don't know where you got the idea that I want to be some kind of Peta terrorist or w/e but you better keep your rude shitty two cents to yourself or atleast speak your mind NICELY by telling your opinion in a less rude way by NOT saying people who dislike fur companies are retards and such and terrorist because it is getting you no where.

As long as it costs more for a fur coat, it's fine with me. I really don't see anything wrong with it. There are animals that'll kill us off, and I'm pretty sure they aren't giving us any shots.

Saying this, I wouldn't repeatedly watch that video.

Who makes fur coats out of chickens or cows? Cows are made into leather, and that's totally different than a fur coat. And chickens don't have fur silly, they have feathers.

Okay I'll ask this nicely and I'll be more specific since Mr. Crankypants here seems to be having a meltdown:

Would like mind finding me a better insulator then fur that is used in coats and other clothing materials? I am eagerly awaiting an answer.

Sigh...much better..anyway I'm know chickens don't have fur I was talking about their meat along with cows...BTW If you still can't find a better insulator then a jacket stuffed with cotton and wool then I feel hopeless for you because I have nothing else for you. Either your very poor skin is sensitive, or you just don't have enough fat on yourself, but hey..you could always use a snow jacket on a 65 degree day and make yourself stand-out in a bad way, but that's up to you.
