We Need to Finnish Fur Farms July 8, 2008

Here's a special guest blog from Martin with peta2 UK.
We all know that fur is messed up and illegal to farm in the UK but clothing companies like Burberry still seem to feel like they have to drape their clothes with the corpses of dead animals.
We have a little bit of undercover filming that shows how animals that will eventually become coats, boots or trim are treated in fur farms in Finland (hence the witty title of this blog). Animals killed for their fur spend their entire short lives in tiny cages with wire floor, not being able to do any of the things that come naturally to them, only to be anally electrocuted, drowned, or beaten to death for fashion.
Watch the video for yourself.
How can you help to stop this from happening? Join the peta2 Street Team to get started.
Peace
-Martin

i watched a video today and it made me cry because it showed animals acutally getting skinned alive. why should animals have to suffer for so called fashion? they need the fur more than we do and they shouldn't have to get killed for that.
H.I.M. is from there, ville valo is vegetarian i know... maybe H.I.M. would be willing to get involved here too? its different if people across the world are upset as opposed to people a bit closer, especially people as freaking awesome as H.I.M. Ive got my 'Fur is Dead!' tshirt and i really want to do a protest but all my ideas are way too graphic and gory for my moms taste. if anyone wants to wear a skin colored bikini while covered in fake blood tied upside down to a fence outside a fur store please send me pictures...
