Animals on fur farms spend their entire lives trapped in cramped, filthy wire cages. Fur farmers use the cheapest and cruelest methods available, including suffocation, electrocution, and poisoning. Much of the fur sold in the U.S. comes from China, where millions of animals—even dogs and cats—are tortured and even skinned alive for it.

Coyotes killed for the fur used as trim are trapped in their natural habitats and can suffer for days before eventually dying from blood loss, dehydration, frostbite, gangrene, or attacks by predators. Some, especially mothers desperate to get back to their young, have even been known to attempt to chew or twist off their legs to get free. Animals who are still alive when the trapper returns can be bludgeoned, strangled, or shot.

Whether it comes from an animal raised on a fur farm or trapped in nature, every fur coat, accessory, or trim is the product of tremendous suffering. Each year, approximately 100 million animals are killed for their fur.

Tell Etsy to Ban Fur From Its Website!

Urge Etsy to make a positive impact for animals by updating its Animal Products Policy to include a ban on fur.

I was appalled to hear that Etsy continues to allow fur to be sold on its website, even after hearing from PETA that animals who are killed for fur suffer immensely. Etsy claims to be a company that strives to lead with optimism and that helps to spread ideas of sustainability and responsibility. Yet continuing to allow sellers to offer items made from fur—for which animals spend their entire lives confined to filthy cages before finally being beaten, electrocuted, gassed, or skinned alive—is anything but sustainable or responsible. Hundreds of other companies have already banned fur, and it’s time that Etsy got onboard! If your company really wants to make a positive impact, please take a stand against the violent fur trade and ban the sale of fur immediately.
