Lady Freethinker Exposes Foxes Skinned Alive on Fur Farms


A shocking new Lady Freethinker (LFT) investigation in partnership with local Chinese organization Paws of China reveals that foxes and racoon dogs are crammed into tiny, wire cages, pulled out of enclosures using iron tongs or metal poles, or yanked by their sensitive tails, and skinned alive on fur farms in China.

Investigators visited 4 farms in China, and witnessed thousands of animals - some with crusty, watery eyes - terrified in their barren enclosures as they waited to be violently killed.

Foxes and racoon dogs are sensitive and intelligent animals who don't deserve to be crammed into wire cages and violently killed for fur.
With so many alternatives to animal fur existing today that don't cause animals to suffer and die, there is absolutely no excuse for this torture and violence.

This is a global issue, as China is the world's biggest producer of animal fur, and is the largest exporter of fur worldwide - including to the United States.

Please sign our petition today urging retailers around the world to stop selling animal fur and remember to leave all animal furs, skins, and feathers out of your wardrobe
