PSA on Fur Farms and Unethical Faux Tails
-
For those looking to buy tail keychains but don’t have a lot of money do not buy them off Amazon, Temu, and AliExpress. I know Esty isn’t cheap but please buy them from there esty’s taxidermy tails come from genuine ethical sources. Many products marketed as “faux fur” on mass-production sites like Amazon, Temu, or AliExpress. These are frequently sourced from unethical Fur Farms.
Fur farms often engage in unethical and cruel practices. Animals on these farms are confined to small, filthy cages, which are significantly smaller than their natural roaming areas. For example, Arctic foxes, who naturally roam within a 12-mile family territory and can migrate nearly 3,000 miles, are kept in cages smaller than one square meter (about 10 square feet).
Animal rights groups have reported that animals on fur farms frequently suffer from sickness, infected eyes and wounds, limb and mouth deformities, obesity, overgrown nails, and stress behaviors such as pacing, repetitive nodding, self-mutilation, and cannibalism.
Fur animals typically live very short lives and are killed before they reach one year old. Common methods of killing include gassing or electrocution some animals are killed with brutal blows to the head or by having their necks broken.Some tails marketed as “Faux tails” are actually from plastic materials like polyester or acrylic. These materials are not biodegradable and environmental safe.
