The largest in the world clothing One of the group, Spain Inditex group announced on the 10 day that it will stop selling Angola rabbit hair products in all its brand stores. CNN (CNN) said it was called for by animal protection organizations, and now more than 70 international clothing brands and companies have stopped using Angola rabbit hair. The reason is 90% of the global market. Angola rabbit hair Produced in China, and "Chinese farms treat rabbits cruelly".

Inditex group owns 8 brands, including Zara, MassimoDutti and Bershka. The company said that after months of pressure from PETA, the group decided to stop selling Angola rabbit hair products in more than 6400 stores worldwide. At present, about twenty thousand Angola rabbit hair products will be donated to Lebanese refugees in Syria. The total value is about US $878 thousand. CNN says PETA is a non-governmental organization based in the United States. In November 2013, the group released a naked bloody movie to expose the farms in Shandong and Jiangsu of China to tie the Angola rabbit on the table and directly pull off a slice of rabbit hair with their hands until the whole body was bald. In this process, the rabbit is constantly screaming, and after it has been thrown back to the cage, the rabbit is still in shock. The organization said that because China lacked the official regulatory authority for obtaining rabbit hair in Angola by humane means, it was not uncommon for farms to treat rabbits cruelly. Reported that the clothing made of rabbit hair in Angola is favored by consumers because of its warmth, but this video has caused concern. The Swedish fashion brand HM subsequently announced that it would no longer use Angola rabbit hair to make products. At present, international clothing brands including ASOS, CalvinKlein and TommyHilfiger have announced that the Angola rabbit hair is no longer used.

domestic Fur industry A person familiar with the matter told reporters 11 days ago that the operation of Angola rabbit hair stopped by PETA organization has great influence on this industry. In recent years, the export of rabbit hair in Angola, China has been affected. Many European countries have stopped importing, and the price has dropped a lot. In fact, rumors of animal abuse on farms in China have been there before. In December 2013, foreign media exposed the slaughterhouse of China's Shandong "skinning the fox fur", and others released the video of Chinese farmers' "pulling out the long haired rabbit hair". However, the person said that their actual investigation into Chinese farms revealed that the phenomenon of "stripping and pulling" was not actually the norm in the industry because it was economically and psychologically unrealistic, and more farmers were using shearing methods. Economically, the long haired rabbit that has been shucked is easy to die because of illness, which is not worth the gain. Psychologically, the long haired rabbit is almost all the economic source of these Chinese farmers, and they can not bear to treat these small animals cruelly.
