Rabbits

rabbit_farmRipped off and put in cage

The winter is on its way to Europe so it is time to find a nice, warm and soft sweater. And what is softer than a sweater made of angora wool…?

Nothing really, BUT

…Angora wool comes from the Angora rabbit, which is a special breed of rabbits, where the fur grows continuously.

Every three months the fur is ripped off the rabbit while the rabbit is very much alive and screaming (yes, rabbits can scream and do you dare to hear it?).

Afterwards, the rabbit is put back into its cage, ripped off and all naked without straw and hay. Only waiting for its fur to grow back, and by then be ready to be ripped off again.

90 percent of all angora wool is obtained this way!

You can do something: Don’t buy clothes that contains angora wool.

…And if you cannot resist the soft angora wool then make sure that it isn’t made in China, but in UK.
