unless they live in a place that’s as cold as minnesota, no one should be allowed to wear uggs anyway. so friggin fugggg. so to all those unstylish people blindly following the cult of ugg but are too cheap to pay for the real thing, don’t. just don’t. you won’t be in danger of committing a fashion AND raccoon dog offense.
Knock off Uggs are made with the pelts of Chinese raccoon dogs rather than than the sheep skin found in authentic Uggs. In order to pass the savings for these counterfeits on to the customer, the raccoon dogs are tortured and murdered in a mind-blowingly horrific fashion.
In this horrific youtube video, it shows the very slow process of how they are skinned alive which usually starts from the feet(paw)-up, giving the animal plenty of time to endure the pain. One investigator recorded a skinned raccoon dog, tossed onto a heap of carcasses; it had enough strength to lift its bloodied head and stare into the camera.
SIGN THIS PETITION TO STOP THE USE OF RACCOON DOG FOR UGG BOOTS IN AUSTRALIA!PLEASE DO NOT PASS UP ON SEEING THIS POST RIGHT NOW
I literally threw up watching this video.
My god. You literally hear them scream, and I don’t advise it for the squeamish or faint of heart.
What I can tell you is that it was first beat on the ground with a stick to quiet down, I believe, then hung from a pole, secured, then skinned alive by being cut feet first then down. and it’s still alive.
The one cut in this video is still. alive. after having it’s skin ripped off and being beaten. After which it is thrown into a pile of carcasses.
Please. Think about what you are buying sometimes.How does one place an article of clothing on them when the means to make the clothe are through torturing an animal. For the price of shoes? Subhan’Allaah!
This is so disgusting. Sometime I feel ashamed to call myself a human after seeing crap like this. STOP THE FUR TRADE! IT LOOKS BETTER ON ANIMALS THAN IT LOOKS ON YOU.
