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 />
