Mink cull in the Netherlands because of pandemic

[Catherine]

I was angry when I read the article. Sure they halted the cull. but it turned out they did it because of the economic needs of the mink farmers.
The mink were never considered. They are going to be killed no matter what happens. All the judge cared about was the farmers.

That is a thorough article. It makes a lot of good points. However whether it is a bad mink farm or a worse mink farm, it is still a mink farm.
The purpose of a mink farm is to raise mink to kill them for their skins because we think they make our clothing more fashionable.
We don't need to wear fur. We have non fur alternatives that work very well. I live in Canada and always have. We have cold and colder and even coldest winters. 
I don't wear fur and I am warm enough.

Wearing mink is a form of vanity and no animal should live a sort cruel life and have a horrible death just to satisfy human vanity.

We need to stop fur farming. There is no excuse for wearing fur.
