Stop the Fur Farms-Animals Skinned Alive

When undercover investigators made their way onto Chinese fur farms recently, they found that many animals are still alive and struggling desperately when workers flip them onto their backs or hang them up by their legs or tails to skin them. When workers on these farms begin to cut the skin and fur from an animal's leg, the free limbs kick and writhe. Workers stomp on the necks and heads of animals who struggle too hard to allow a clean cut.

When the fur is finally peeled off over the animals' heads, their naked, bloody bodies are thrown onto a pile of those who have gone before them. Some are still alive, breathing in ragged gasps and blinking slowly. Some of the animals' hearts are still beating five to 10 minutes after they are skinned. One investigator recorded a skinned raccoon dog on the heap of carcasses who had enough strength to lift his bloodied head and stare into the camera.

Before they are skinned alive, animals are pulled from their cages and thrown to the ground; workers bludgeon them with metal rods or slam them on hard surfaces, causing broken bones and convulsions but not always immediate death. Animals watch helplessly as workers make their way down the row.

Below is the link to the video that was shot...BE WARNED IT IS EXTREAMLY GRAPHIC!!!!!!!!!

With a hidden camera, animals were filmed being SKINNED ALIVE!!! They say it's done to get a more perfect 'cut.' Afterwards, the carcasses are tossed into a pile, still alive, and for up to 10 minutes you can see their hearts still beating, in agony, their eyes still blinking and the puppies little paws still shaking. There was one pup, that still lifted his head and gazed at the camera with bloodied eyes.

If you don't care to see the video, please just sign and forward to your friends. This monstrosity has to be stopped! We have to act!!
