Thanksgiving Is Coming-Do Something Good For the Animals-Join Fur Free Friday!

Not in Beverly Hills? Join a Fur-Free Friday Near You!
 

Did you know that over 40 million fur-bearing animals worldwide are killed for their skins each year?

10 million of these animals are wild. They are caught in painful traps often suffering for hours or days waiting to be brutally clubbed or suffocated to death.

The other 30 million fur-bearing animals are raised on fur farms. Held captive in overcrowded cages, suffering from nervous disorders, physical deformities and other genetic defects, these animals are then killed by anal electrocution, suffocation and/or drowning. Killing methods can vary on each fur farm depending which is the best method to keep the animals pelt whole and in one piece.

Fur Free Friday is a nationwide protest that takes place every year the Friday after Thanksgiving, it aims to educate people about the horrors suffered by fur-bearing animals.
