Fur farming is the practice of breeding or raising certain types of animals for their fur.
The animal most commonly farmed for its fur is the mink. As of 2003, Denmark had the largest fur-farming industry, with 35% of world production.
After the initial success of anti-fur campaigns in the 1980s and 1990s, in recent times the popularity of fur clothing appears to be increasing again around the world. This growing demand has led to the development of extensive fur farming operations in countries such as China, where activist groups such as People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals have raised concerns about what they allege is the inhumane treatment of animals (animals are skinned while alive, as there is no regulation against doing so) and the nature of slaughterhouse practices.
