Animal Furs from diverse viewpoint-PETA's viewpoint


The following are profiles of organization which have unique perspectives on the animal fur’s issue. People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals is the organization which try to protect animal’s right. Their perspective is that killing animals for their furs should not be allowed. I have written in their voice. I used factual information from this article:

I am a member of the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. We are called PETA. We are the largest group which support the right of animals established in 1980 in Virginia in United States.

I disagree with killing animals for their furs. Tremendous numbers of animals are sacrificed for fur coat, decoration and so on. I want to protect their lives. Can you imagine how animals are killed in fur farms? Fur farmers use the cheapest and cruelest killing methods available, for example, beating them with the club tipped with metal hooks and beating them on the ground. I am grieved to imagine that animals are suffering from bleeding without any resistance. I think that people who buy furs for their fashion don’t think animal’s feelings. They never imagine how animals are suffering from unbearable pain when they are skinned alive. If people think these kind of things before buying furs, they will hesitate to buy furs.

In order to protect animal’s lives, we don’t want you to buy animal furs. If you really want to wear furs, you can buy cruelty-free fabrics and artificial furs in stores everywhere. We continue to work with designers and clothing retailers to encourage people to use and sell only animal-friendly fabrics. I hope more and more people never support this cruel practice by refusing to buy any fur products.

  3. All classmates seemed to understand what I said in the presentation. Most students agreed with the activity of PETA which protect animal's right. Some students thought killing animal by beating is so irrational and cluel and they could imagine how painful when they are killed. One of them commented that he tried to watch the video in which the animals are killed but he couldn't because it was so cruel. Also, there were many students who agree with using artificial furs because we can be fasshionable and no animals are killed in this way.

  4. You, Ayako, and Ikumi showed us three very different and easily imaginable perspectives. You did a nice job presenting them in class last week, too. Thank you for summarizing your classmates' feedback so well.

    Cheers,
    Joseph
