Young Brunette Girl At Home On The Fur Carpet

Fur is also used to make felt. A common felt is made from beaver fur and is used in high-end cowboy hats.
Controversy
Most animal rights activists are opposed to the trapping and killing of wildlife, and the confinement and killing of animals on fur farms. According to Humane Society International, over 8 million animals are trapped yearly for fur, while more than 30 million were raised in fur farms. Based on video footage, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) allege that dog and cat fur farming in China is particularly inhumane, although no clothing products have been found to contain cat or dog hair as a raccoon dog is not actually a "dog" (a primitive canid, its closest relative is the bat-eared fox).
