So when you buy a fur coat from the store you'll pay couple hundred bucks and walk out with a coat made by hundreds of animals that gave up their life so you could wear that coat two times a year. However you don't know that the real price of fur muyst be measure in deaths not dollars. When you buy that coat you think that the store baught it from the factory where they make it, well the store pays the factory a certain amount and then they kill hundreds of animals to equal that price. To make one fur coat you must kill at least fifty-five wild mink, thirty-five ranched mink, forty sables, eleven lynx, eighteen red foxes, eleven silver foxes, one hundred chinchillas, thirty rex rabbits, nine beavers, thirty muskrats, fifteen bobcats, twenty-five skunks, fourteen otters, one hundred twenty-five ermines, thirty possums, one hundred squirrels, or twenty-seven raccoons. Now you may think that its an exageation but these are real quality fur coats and they line the inside and the outside of the coat. Next time you walk buy a store, look at how many fur coats there are and remember 675 animals where forced to give their lives for you to wear it just once or twice a year and eventually forget about it.
