Humane Soc sues major retailers over fur. Sickening.

Tigers.

I so love tigers, yet their numbers are so low. It makes me sick.

>I so love tigers, yet their numbers are so low. It makes me sick.

That's true id you consider extinct low - for certain subspecies. It's appalling.


----------------
Three tiger subspecies are considered to have become extinct in the past 60 years.

The Caspian tiger, Panthera tigris virgata, once ranged in Afghanistan, Iran, Turkey, Mongolia, and the Central Asiatic area of Russia and probably went extinct in the 1950s.

The Javan tiger, Panthera tigris sondaica, formerly ranged on the Indonesian island of Java and was last seen in 1972.

The Bali tiger, Panthera tigris balica, once lived on Bali, where the last tiger was believed to have been killed in 1947.

>>Why is using animals for fur any more wrong than using them for meat?

>They way they are de-furred and the treatment leading up to the de-furring.

Have you seen the way we raise and kill our food animals?

Maybe someday we will find a better way to get our nutrition...

I have never understood the excuses for owning furs. Tho' I agree how the Native American Indians recycled the remains of an animal after it was killed for food.
My S/O always claims that human beings aren't intent to be carnivores based on our intestines.
