Fur farms

Dear Editor: The fur industry involves extreme cruelty to animals. These animals are skinned alive.

More than half the fur in the United States comes from China, where millions of dogs and cats are slaughtered for their coats. Many of them are family pets that have been kidnapped. Ameirca is no better; there are fur farms here as well.

No animals should ever be slaughtered for their fur. It is cruel and disgusting. It is time for us to evolve as human beings and pass laws that make fur farms and the sale of fur illegal.
