Since seals until chinchillas and foxes and bobcats, millions of animals are killed every year for making fur coats in the world. Only in France are slaughtered rabbits 70 million per year for this purpose. But the industry of luxury coats is criticized. For animal rights organizations, more than unjustified - there are synthetic and natural fabrics that fulfill the function -, the activity is very cruel. Suffering now begin to capture the animal, that penalty at the hands of hunters - seals, for example, are killed with a stick on the head, not to damage the skin. Even when bred in captivity, the animals would live in degrading conditions and would suffer horrors time to extract the skin. The producers, in turn, challenge what they call the sensationalism of the entities. “For Chinchilla, death occurs at a break neck cervical vertebrae.’s A painless process, without blood or pain,” says Carlos Perez, president of Breeders Association Chinchilla Lanífera (Achila). For advocates of the animals, however, the cruelty is obvious when one takes into account that, unlike the buzz with cows and chickens - killed to feed people - in the case of the fashion industry animals are sacrificed just to feed the vanity others.
