Fur refers to the pelts of animals such as mink, foxes, rabbits, and raccoons, used in fashion for centuries, with most commercial fur sourced from fur farms. The environmental impact is significant, involving intensive land use, large feed requirements, and chemical-heavy processing that includes toxic substances like chromium and formaldehyde.
However, the most serious issue is animal welfare: farmed animals are often confined in small cages and killed by methods such as gassing, electrocution, or neck-breaking. Wild-trapped fur can also involve inhumane leg-hold traps.
Although fur is biodegradable, these practices have led many countries and fashion houses to ban or phase it out entirely due to ethical and environmental concerns.
