Animal Rights Group PETA'S Social Platform In China Has Been Closed.

Come from International Fur Association According to the news, animal rights organization PETA (PETA) recently closed its social platform in China. Previously, PETA was not legally registered in China. It constantly spreads rumors and misleads the public in China, and uses people's sympathy to achieve their special purposes. It incites people to resist the use of animal and animal products, object to the use of animals for medical experiments, against people eating meat products, and against people eating eggs and milk.

PETA is trying to damage the Chinese fur industry by spreading malicious information, including a video spread across the globe. It shows that a raccoon dog has been skinned and skinned in a Chinese market, but it turned out to be a hoax. These activities have seriously damaged the image of China's industry and the stability of the market, and also harmed the interests of consumers.

In fact, China's Fur industry It is legal and complies with all domestic legislation and animal welfare standards. Fur industry attaches great importance to animal welfare, to ensure that fur animals have sufficient space for activities, adequate nutrition and sanitation, and a comprehensive medical environment. And the skin must also be painless and humane. The animal welfare standard of fur farming is even higher than that of other aquaculture industries.

China is the largest fur producing and consuming country in the world. 2018, China Mink skin The yield is 20 million 730 thousand, the output of fox skin is 17 million 390 thousand, and the output of raccoon skin is 12 million 330 thousand. Fur farming and processing industry benefit the "three rural", and make great contributions to farmers' income and rural economic development. Fur farming in some areas such as Shandong, Liaoning and Hebei, fur farming in some areas has accounted for more than 60% of the total agricultural production in the region and has become a pillar industry in the countryside.

Fur processing is a labor-intensive industry. Its process is complicated and its handicraft industry is characterized by obvious characteristics. Over the past ten years, Hebei, Zhejiang, Jiangsu and Northeast China have made fur processing as the center, harvesting the fur processing industry's rapid growth, and decomposing a large number of surplus labor force in the region. China's fur industry plays a long-term and important role in the areas of retail, import and export, and so on. At the present stage of downward pressure on the economy and low retail industry, fur products play an important role in maintaining market stability.

The International Fur Association affirmed the way that PETA's social platform was closed in China. The rational use of animals has been consistent with scientific and rational values and judgments since ancient times. In the face of extreme "animal protectionism" behavior, people who do not investigate the truth are easily deceived and misled by these false information. The practice of shutting down its social platform will undoubtedly play a positive role in promoting healthy atmosphere, purifying social media environment and setting up scientific values, and will usher in more applause and support.
