You mean their fur is loved. If people would much rather have it alive then why is farmed solely to be killed for profit?

I can't speak for their motives- I've never personally dealt with a fur farm . We get the fur second hand from that business.
I would rather have the fur be made into taxidermy to be loved that will actually  than a pair of gloves.  No one here is disrespectful to these animals. Even in death they are treated with care and respect. I understand if that isn't something you can understand or want to. Taxidermy is a fine line. But most of these animals are not  killed for this purpose.

Also if you are actually interested in conversation and learning a different viewpoint then you should read this =) Lots of good info.

The Big Argument
There has been controversy for a while now regarding animal welfare. Whether furs and taxidermy were acceptable or not and whether or not to should stand up against hunting. I want to put you in perspective of accepting both and why it is okay to.
Going Natural
While you may think you've done well keeping away from using animal products to help save the animals, you may not be all that is gold, many are in disguise.
Because it is recognizable in it's true form does not mean it doesn't exist anywhere else.

K but that's not what this guy is all about. He stated himself that he farms them for profit.

This person actually doesn't he gets them from a breeder.
And from my understanding the breeder breeds them as pets and the pelts acquired are normally deceased older animals.

Nemi does not farm them himself, he buys the pelts. One of the main fur farmers these pelts are acquired from actually raises them mainly for exotic pets. Ones that are too aggressive, ill, or unable or undesirable to breed anymore are put down and the pelts sold.

However, there are foxes at farms that are put down specifically for their fur. However most of this fur goes to the fur market where it goes to the fashion industry.

Not everyone agrees with fur farming and that is fine, you don't have to. But these animals are not treated cruelly. They are sheltered, fed abundantly, and allowed to breed before being put down humanely.
