Data<br />

The Problem<br />

Each year, over 2 million animals are<br />

raised on fur farms and killed for their fur.<br />

The Culprits<br />

Those listed here.<br />

The Solution<br />

...begins with you.<br />

AND FUR INDUSTRY INFRASTRUCTURE SITES<br />

Listed here are the addresses of every known fur farm in North America. The addresses<br />

in this volume were taken from The Final Nail #3, released in the summer of 2008. For a<br />

broader understanding of the fur industry and 25 pages of information supplementing the<br />

addresses, we encourage referencing The Final Nail #3.<br />

UNIVERSITY & PRIVATE RESEARCH<br />

The fur industry relies on research done in labs to increase their profits through further manipulation of housing<br />

conditions, breeding, and feed.<br />

FUR AUCTION HOUSES<br />

Where trappers and fur farmers sell the skins to retailers, wholesalers, and brokers. A weak point in the industry, as<br />

only a few auction houses remain open.<br />

FUR FARM FEED SUPPLIERS<br />

The values of the pelts are largely due to their quality, and quality is closely related to specially blended feed developed<br />

by feed suppliers. These are a crucial component of the industry and there are only a handful left. Many also<br />

have experimental fur farms.<br />

FUR FARMS<br />

FOX – 16 mink farms also raise fox in the U.S. as of 2006. There are no USDA statistics for fox farms and the<br />

exact number is not known.<br />

LYNX - Approximately 40 farms still imprison lynx in North America.<br />

MINK – The U.S. has 271 mink farms as of 2006.<br />

TRAPPING SUPPLIERS<br />

Businesses selling leg-hold and other traps for killing wild fur animals.<br />

FUR FARM EQUIPMENT SUPPLIERS<br />

Companies that sell cages, killing devices, automatic pelters, feed grinders, and more.<br />

FURRIER EQUIPMENT SUPPLIER<br />

Companies that sell tools to make the coats and other garments.<br />

FUR PROCESSORS / WHOLESALERS<br />

These are the people who clean pelts and sell them in bulk. Not all wholesalers are processors, although many are.<br />

FUR FARM ORGANIZATIONS<br />

Groups of fur farmers who lobby state legislators, produce propaganda and manage sales of skins.<br />

FUR TRAPPING ORGANIZATIONS<br />

Groups of fur trappers who lobby state legislators, produce propaganda and manage sales of skins.<br />

Over 10 billion animals are killed annually for “food” and “science”, and it is the obligation of all of us to expose<br />

these horrors. The Voice of the Voiceless (.org) Flashpoint volumes are presented to address a simple fact: animal<br />

abuse industries owe their existence to their secrecy. In giving animal exploitation an exact physical location, the<br />

abstraction is removed and we are confronted with the duty that comes from living amidst a modern day Holocaust.<br />

Knowledge bears responsibility.<br />

FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY<br />

+++: <strong>Farms</strong> with this tag are requiring<br />

further investigation due to one<br />

of the following: 1) the farms are<br />

reported as not being at the address<br />

listed, 2) the current operational status<br />

of the business is in question, 3)<br />

there is a portion of the information<br />

in question (missing street address,<br />

etc) or 4) the information is unconfirmed.<br />

With creative research, these<br />

intelligence gaps can be filled.

The following were known to be involved<br />

in the fur farming industry at one point.<br />

Their current status is unknown. Most<br />

of this information is from sources which<br />

date to the late 1980s and early 1990s.<br />

The number of mink farms alone has<br />

dropped from 1,027 in 1988 to 271 in<br />

2006. There is a high probability the<br />

majority of these farms are no longer<br />

in business. However some will be, and<br />

these names and addresses are worthy of<br />

investigation.<br />
