What can be done to stop China from exporting mislabeled fur products?

Question

An estimated 2 million cats and hundreds of thousands of dogs are tortured and slaughtered for their fur in China every year. Undercover video footage shows terrified animals crammed into cages so full—both dead and alive—that they are unable to move. Some of the dogs and cats shown in the footage were still wearing the collars that their former families put on them. Animals are often hung upside-down by their legs or tails, and their skin is ripped off their bodies as they writhe and struggle.China's cruel fur industry unrepentantly continues to torture and kill animals for their skins.China is one of the world's largest suppliers of animal fur. More than 95 percent of China's finished fur garments are exported for sale overseas, and many of them go to North America and Japan. Dog and cat fur is often intentionally mislabeled as "Asian jackal" or "rabbit" fur. I have heard that animal rights groups are planning to protest at the Olympics about this horrific issue. Is it true?

Answer 1

I have seen these disgusting trinkets that looked like real fur, now I know they probably were.  They are usually found at swap meets and other places like quick stop stores.

They need to be stopped at the ports and I think Peta would have the power to do this.  

Please post the video you are referring to on you tube so the word will get out.  I would also like to have the website so I can protest it.  The Chinese eat dogs I know, they were asked to remove them from the menus at restaurants during the Olympics.

Answer 2

My 23 cats just advised me they are not planning to go to China anytime soon.   Truly.  That is a horror.  Boycotting these types of products from China is the only answer.

Answer 3

The western countries could stop China if they want but I don't think they are interested. AND.. that is too bad.
