56. Fur Farms & Saving Foxes: Nicole Navarro

Nicole Navarro runs Pawsitive Beginnings (PawsitiveBeginnings.org), a rescue that saves foxes from fur farms and provides them with a safe and permanent home in Key Largo, Florida.

\\n

Did you know that fur farms are not only operating, but are alive and thriving in the United States?  Although rescue is growing, only a fraction of the animals are saved.  And the only purpose for keeping them on the farm is to kill them for their fur.

\\n

This is a very cruel, no silver linings, far from glamorous, industry.  And it likely won\\u2019t stop until people stop purchasing fur.

\\n

SIMPLE IDEA:

\\n

Boycott brands who use fur. Topping this list are Louis Vuitton, Dolce & Gabbana, and Yves Saint Laurent.  These brands continue to fund the cruel fur farms industry.  Giving them our money (even if it\\u2019s not for fur clothing) gives them money to spend on perpetuating the practice.  It\\u2019s best to boycott the brand as a whole.
