    I thought Denmark was better than that. What are mink ‘farmed’ for, presumably just their fur? Horrible, disgusting business. It’s this sort of activity that will source new viruses that can transmit to humans. The next one may well be far worse than COVID-19. Apparently, Ireland also has considerable numbers of mink ‘farms’; shameful.

    I am not labelling as shameful the farming of animals for food, if it’s done in a sustainable manner. I think the farming of animals such as mink purely for their fur is shameful, just for the ego of wealthy women who only seem to care about their own appearance. It’s almost as bad as ‘hunting’, where wealthy tosses claim to get enjoyment from killing animals for their perception of ‘sport’.

    I agree, as someone who likes a steak and bacon I understand the meat marketing industry, most parts of a food animal is ultimately used. Farming animals for high end fashion use alone is abhorrent to me, no place for it at all and it should be banned.

    I agree with you regarding farming animals Ketts. I only make the point that we humans farm huge amounts of life for consumption...either for wearing or for eating....be it cows, pigs, minks or whatever...to be honest...
