People have been wearing animal fur since the beginning of time.

Yes. They need the basic three elements. Food, water and cover. Given these they will adapt. But any given area will only support so much wildlife predator and prey. Birds and small rodents like mice will be staples I'm sure. If there are quail around they will suffer much. Ground nesting birds are favorite prey for mink. Eggs and the birds tbemselves.

Exactly. Too many people on CD want to turn EVERY discussion into a political left vs right issue. It's trollish, obviously, and intellectually lazy.

As if there are no conservatives who are opposed to wearing fur, and no liberals who wear fur.

As I am an occasional carnivore I have no problem with domesticating and raising animals for their usefulness. I believe as much of the animal as possible should be used. I wear beef leather shoes and jackets and others as leather gloves. I would wear a bison coat if I could afford it and lived in a cold enough place.


Mink are raised for their wrappers but I wonder what is done with the rest of the animal. Probably dog and cat food. Our carnivore pets cannot live on grains like we can. Something has to die to feed them.


This piece of vandalism gives Vandals bad name. At least the Vandals used whatever they stole. These idiots simply did not use their brains but relied on their emotions.

Another liberal mission went astray.

We actually agree on something. It was moronic.

Leftists don't care as long as THEY are the ones doing the killing. In other words, they don't care if they ALL die, as long as they FEEL better about themselves for letting them free.

Oh, RedZin, please don't encourage their tiresome tendencies to turn anything and everything into yet another left vs right battle in the Neverending American Cold Civil War. PLEASE!

You are being raise by your MASTERS, for the fruit of your labors. You just ain't caught on yet.
