Most of the millions of cows, pigs, sheep, and goats slaughtered for their skin endure the horrors of factory farming, overcrowding, deprivation, unanesthetized castration, branding, tail-docking, and de- horning. At the end of their short miserable lives they ard stunned, skinned, hung upside down and bled to death.
The meat industry relies on skin sales to remain profitable. Buying leather contributes to factory farms and slaughterhouses since skin accounts for 55 % of the product value of cattle.
Everytime you choose to buy anything leather you sentence an animal to a lifetime of suffering. |
