A web site with ethical reasoning
I found a web site which shows ethical reasoning about animal furs.
http://www.wspa-international.org/helping/animalfriendlyliving/does-ethical-green-fur-exist.aspx
In the first article in this web site, it is showed that animal fur is not "ethical", and animals are in weak position and "morally indefensible" againt human.
"fur is never ‘ethical’ and it is never ‘green’"
The headline of this web site "Does 'ethical' or 'green' fur exist?" is impressive. This headline asks us that if there are exact fur existences on the planet, or not, because there is no certain proof to find out which animal's fur and which counties animals were in. It is easy to shift a right information to wrong one.
Also, this web site shoews that consumers buying furs and the people who are involved furs in their job are try to use or wear animlal furs as humane and environmentally friendly product. It is people's ego. They do not know the fact of animals' death. It is not allowed to admit this behavior ethical.
"morally indefensible"
Aniamals are caught. It is hard for them to escape from attacks from humane because human have many kinds of tools. Animals are morally indefensible and catching them is contrary to moral.
Most of animals are smaller and weaker than us.
It is ethically and morally wrong to catch them and end their lives for our luxury.

You're right that moral reasoning is used here. It's hard to oppose fur farming on "humanitarian" or economic grounds because it does add to GDP and creates livelihoods for some people. So, the moral imperative is most effective: that we shouldn't harm these animals because they are smaller and weaker than us and we have a moral responsibility not to cause them harm for our personal benefit.
