MeddelandeThe latest product in my local fly shop in Tibeten temple dog hair. $5 for a 1.5 inch square. Don't think I will be buying any anytime soon.

Exactly: It's like child abuse. ONE case of it, is one case TOO MANY. Question is, what can we as fly tiers do to make sure we do NOT use any animal parts that have been killed like this??? I'm fortunate on my PPP fly. The body is chenille. The tail is squirrels tails that I pick up on the side of the road as "road kill" (and road kill is MUCH more humane way to die than the ways in these films. And the hackle I use came from Denny Conrad, and I am positive he does NOT practice this type of behavior. And I'm HOPE that Whiting farms doesn't either??? I for one, will be using as much man made materials as possible in the flies I tie.

I was sent a link that woke some hope that it's not the "common practice" that the video shows. Apparently it's already a well discussed video and some things hint that it's just one in a row of these arranged "propaganda tools". http://features.peta.org/ChineseFurFarms/ But still, even if it turns out this was just this one time (and not before or after the camera man's visit), it's disgusting that people who claims to be against it actually are ready to set it up themselves. /Nick -----Ursprungligt meddelande----- Från: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com [mailto:vfb-mail@googlegroups.com] För mel hocken Skickat: den 19 mars 2011 17:05 Till: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Ämne: Re: [VFB] Chinese fur farms... Absolutely horrific. Just goes to show that humans are the most evil animal on the planet.

Stumbled upon a video today that made me curious about my own tying material. Watching something like that can make you wish that murder got legalized in certain places. http://features.peta.org/ChineseFurFarms/ (Varning though. If you think the text in the article makes your stomach twist, maybe you don't want to see the video.) /Nick -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VFB Mail" group.
