關於「安哥拉兔毛」的來源及方法我不再重覆。其實自從去年開始做有關 「動物測試」 的研究之後,我已經開始減少了很多用動物皮毛身體做的日用品。手袋啦,大衣啦,護膚品啦。我知道要一下子完全取締不是一件容易的事,畢竟我們都不是活在深山的隠世人士。因此,我可以接受慢慢的改變。至少,我真的好希望你們,我的朋友,肯踏出第一步去尊重生命。
「美麗」。。。
真的是這麼重要嗎?
為了「美麗」,
我們有需要這樣殘忍嗎?
沒有了 「安哥拉兔毛」、「羊毛」、「羽毛」 做的毛衣披肩大衣,我們會冷死嗎?
這,就正如不吃 「漁翅」、你們會餓死嗎,的問題一樣。。。
答案是一這樣的淺而易見,但人們仍然裝作是視而不見!
好!心還未被感動嗎?
看一看這 PETA 在網站發放的短片
就當是做一個對自己的冷血測試

兔毛衣飾 美麗背後不人道 每3月強扯毛 團體籲罷買安哥拉兔產品
兔毛衣飾 美麗背後不人道 每3月強扯毛 團體籲罷買安哥拉兔產品
可售數千元的安哥拉兔毛衣飾,是聖誕送禮之選,但背後卻藏着兔子在內地養殖場,居於跳一步也不能環境內,及每3個月就被工人強行扯下兔毛的慘況;不會叫的兔子,也會悲鳴。當兔毛不再光亮,安哥拉兔就會被割喉、剝皮,賣作肉食。組織批評做法殘忍,呼籲市民罷買所有安哥拉兔產品。
9成安哥拉兔毛 產自中國
「亞洲善待動物組織」指出,全球近9成的安哥拉兔毛產自中國,當中10間位於江蘇、浙江等地的安哥拉兔養殖場,最小的飼養了百多隻兔,大型則有上萬隻。養殖場會個別將每隻安哥拉兔關在鐵籠中,連跳一步的空間都沒有。組織實地拍攝的短片中更記錄兔子前腳被縛,由工人徒手將毛髮一撮一撮強行扯下來,無視兔子發出哀號及掙扎;有些養殖場更將兔子吊於半空,再以剃刀剃走毛髮。
有工人解釋,之所以將兔毛強扯出來,是由於其後長出的毛較剃毛長三分之二,讓商人可賺取更多利潤。安哥拉兔毛於市場上每公斤售大約人民幣100至200元不等,不過,一隻兔子每次只能提供近20克毛量,至少要50隻兔才可湊足一公斤。現時在淘寶網搜尋「安哥拉兔毛」,就很易發現不同款式的毛衣、圍巾。價錢由數十元到數千元不等。本報曾致電皮草公司,均稱無安哥拉兔毛產品出售,但有一家指自家兔毛製的圍巾,索價數千港元不等,游說記者前往選購。部分安哥拉兔每2至5年就會被淘汰,牠們會被割喉、剝皮,賣作肉食;另有養殖場不設淘汰制,令兔子在生存至少8至9年間受盡折磨﹔有工人則指場內大部分兔子養一至兩年後均會猝死。
長困鐵籠 癡呆腳爛耳發炎
「兔仔其實唔會嗌的,除非在生死關頭才會發出聲音。」亞洲善待動物組織香港發言人崔倩萍指,長年在惡劣的鐵籠中生活,除了限制兔子的活動外,亦令他們敏感的腳部潰爛,耳朵發炎而罹患俗稱「側頭症」﹔長期於獨居及不安環境生活,亦會令兔子心理出現問題,有部分一動也不動於籠內發呆。

A Look Inside the Angora Rabbit Fur Industry
PETA Asia's shocking new undercover investigation reveals that angora rabbits have their fur ripped from their skin fistful by fistful as they scream in pain. These gentle and quiet animals have to be in agony to cry out in this way. They endure this torture every three months for up to five years. And 90 percent of the world's angora, used to make sweaters and accessories, comes from China, where there are no penalties for the abuse of animals on farms and no standards to regulate their treatment.
After watching the video, you'll never buy angora again.
The undercover footage, shot by PETA Asia, found horrific routine cruelty to angora rabbits, whose long, soft fur is often used in sweaters and accessories. The investigator filmed workers who were violently ripping the fur from the animals' sensitive skin as they screamed at the top of their lungs in pain. After this terrifying and barbaric ordeal, which the rabbits endure every three months, many of them appeared to go into shock, lying motionless inside their tiny, filthy cages, with no solid flooring or bedding, and without the vital companionship of other rabbits. After two to five years, those who have survived are hung upside down, their throats are slit, and their bodies are sold.
Rabbits who have their fur cut or sheared also suffer: During the cutting process, their front and back legs are tightly tethered—a terrifying experience for any prey animal—and the sharp cutting tools inevitably wound them as they struggle desperately to escape.
Ninety percent of angora fur comes from China, where there are no penalties for abuse of animals on farms and no standards to regulate the treatment of the animals. When you buy a sweater, hat, or other product that contains angora, the angora fur most likely originated in China, even if the finished product was assembled elsewhere.
Rabbits are gentle, socially complex, and intelligent animals with individual personalities, just like dogs and cats. In their natural habitat, rabbits live in scrupulously clean burrows and spend their time foraging for fresh, leafy food and interacting with members of their warren.
