Chinese farms torture live angora rabbits for fur, PETA says
http://nz.news.yahoo.com/a/-/mp/19936873/chinese-farms-torture-live-angora-rabbits-for-fur-peta-says/
Hong Kong (AFP) - Animal rights group PETA urged shoppers Wednesday to boycott products made from angora rabbit fur, after it released footage of fur being plucked from the skins of live rabbits on Chinese farms.
The video shows white angora rabbits at a variety of different farms tied to wooden tables in rooms filled with cages, as workers hold them down and tear off clumps of their fur by hand, while the animals scream in agony.
Another part of the video shows the rabbits pink-skinned after having their downy fur pulled off.
"PETA is appealing to shoppers in the lead-up to Christmas and Chinese New Year. Please take the time to read the label on that sweater or scarf," said PETA Asia vice president Jason Baker in a statement.
