"Humanely" skinning for fur is best done immediately after death. It can be done cleanly soon after death (usually death by bullet through skull) -- this idea of skinning them alive just fails to have any business reasoning (struggling animals damage fur, I'm surprised they don't get the crap bit out of them, etc) .... the only thing I can remotely think of is that bullets are too expensive? I can't imagine any furrier knowingly buying fur obtained this way. This also may be one farm -- period. I don't trust PETA at all -- they're loonies, I've dealt with them. They could be tarring thousands of farms with this one film of one location.

However, at best, this is f*cked up ignorance on the part of whoever owned that business, at worst its just straight-ahead sadism. People simply did not get through most of history getting their clothes by skinning animals alive.... o.O
