Raccoon Dogs "Skinned Alive" For The Iconic Aussie Ugg Boot: Australian News Reports


Horrific video of animals being skinned alive for their pelts in China have featured in Australian news reports on the illicit trade in dog fur.

The fur is even being used to make the iconic Aussie ugg boot, according to one report, which cites claims by the Humane Society International.

In another report, on Australia's 10 Network, an animal welfare activist is seen holding what appears to be a variation on the ugg boot — labeled the MuggBoot.

  1. That is just terrible. They could at least kill the animal before they skin it ALIVE.

    Goes beyond callous.

  2. SICK!

    The makers of these products need to get those sick people to stop what they are doing or find another source for making their product.

    I don't buy that crap anyway, but if I did, I'd stop immediately!
