Flayed alive for fashion: A mink is skinned alive on a fur farm in Suning

county, Hebei. In response to media inquiries, the county's Animal Husbandry

Bureau said it could not interfere in the live skinning of minks and foxes

because there were no regulations banning the practice. SCMP photo

Hi,

 

if anyone of you feels the need to see this more up close (be warned though !)

here is a video with the same content (fox skinned live), and I guess it's

filmed the same location:

'atrocious' is all I can say. I cannot even remotely image what pain these

animals feel while having their skin torn from their bodies while still alive.

Earlier I said I felt this 'behaviour' to be an attitude thing with the Asians.

As if that were an excuse. It is not.

 

Regards,

Diana
