Fur and Sporrans ?

[David Thorpe]

Based on your original post, don't ever visit a slaughterhoue or a rendering plant unless you're already a vegetarian. Just sayin'...

I agree , I did not know this stuff went on , I guess I just thought they were more humane about it .

As with all livestock and game -- some animals are treated with respect and harvested as humanely as possible, and others are not. If that's important to you, know your sources and vote with your wallet.

Good point , I have looked at all the EBAY sporrans and thought man that is a good deal
But now I see how much it really cost to make prodution run sporrans.

I could not imagine wearing a sporran that was made this way .

But as you said if I dont like it then dont buy it right , I will take that into thought

[Dale Seago]

I wear my kilts without regard to what other people may think, pro or con.

Sporrans, on the other hand. . .

I have two fur sporrans, a full-mask silver fox from Craigie and a natural-color beaver Glengyle from Ferguson Britt. I haven't worn the silver fox for a decade, and I've noticed that, beautiful as the beaver Glengyle is, pretty much the only times I wear it are when I'm in Japan.

I am sure the vendors on the forum , dont use hide and FUR from these fur trade companys in the video .... I think they don't anyways .

I buy all of my fur from only two places. I buy from them because the pelts are wild takes, clean with only 1-2 holes, and come with all legal tags and paperwork.
I won't buy farmed fur.

Fur is indeed an animal product, which everyone has to come to their own terms on. I respect both sides of this argument.

This is quite an unpleasant video, but you should also examine the source. PETA has a particular point of view, and will pick footage that serves their message, and nothing that reenforces the opposite p.o.v.
As with nearly everything, the truth is probably somewhere in the middle.

I agree , thank you are not useing the FUR that is mass farmed . But yes I am sure PETA
has an axe to grind , but at any rate I felt like somethng needed to be said.
I mean I have fur sporrans and I insantly felt bad about having them .
I cant imagine how this farming goes on .
If there are companys out there that supplie the FUR in a Humane way , there should be a
list of Humane vendors for FUR.
We should stay away from the framed FUR companys for our sporran needs .
