The investigation, which took place in Hebei and Jilin provinces of China, uncovered harrowing scenes of cruelty. Investigators bore witness to the appalling conditions in which thousands of animals are forced to exist. Foxes and raccoon dogs were seen crammed into tiny wire cages. Skinned foxes were blinking and moving their jaws for minutes after being brutally stripped of their fur.

Additionally, piles of bloody carcasses were strewn across the ground. Workers were using metal poles and iron tongs to move animals around.

Nina Jackel, the founder and president of Lady Freethinker, minced no words in condemning such barbarity. “With so many fashionable, durable, and warm alternatives to animal fur, there is absolutely no justification for torturing and killing animals for fashion,” she declared, urging retailers to cease the sale of fur immediately. She also implored the public to keep animal fur and skins out of their wardrobes.

China doesn’t give a fuck about people, you think they would about animals?
