Anti-FurDemo,(SF)ChineseConsulate,9/23,12-2PM

[Guest guest]

Dear AAPN Colleagues,

Please pass this on to friends and your respective network.

Please join members of IDA for a demonstration to protest the cruel

treatment of minks, raccoons and foxes raised on Chinese fur farms

and killed for their pelts. A recent investigation of fur farms in

China - where 80% of the world's fur comes from - exposed horrific

cruelty in a country where there are NO animal welfare laws.

Investigators found workers attempting to stun animals by repeatedly

slamming them against the ground or bashing their heads with clubs.

Such unreliable methods left many animals fully conscious, visibly

blinking and breathing for as long as ten minutes after their fur

was stripped from their bodies.

 

What: Anti-fur Demo

When: Friday, September 23rd from 12:00 noon to 2:00 p.m.

Where: Consulate General of the People's Republic of China, 1450

Laguna Street (near Geary Blvd.), San Francisco (click
