Who do we

The tragedy is that we do all kinds of lovely things to animals and they're not just limited to the fur trade. As others have commented the food and leather industries also have a record on how they treat animals and it isn't particularly good.

It's a stretch to argue we shouldn't commercialy use animals for food and clothing. However I think we're mostly blind to the processes involved in intensive farming of animals and the degree to which they suffer in the pursuit of cheaper and cheaper food.

I always worried that if I really found out what went on in the process of putting a KFC bargain bucket in my grubby mit, then I might well give up eating meat altogether.

Sadly I did and I have.
