“You took a seal club and threw it in the water."
Watson's response:
"Well holy shit. The jerk was about to bash in the brains of a baby seal, for Christ's sake, I was not going to stand there and watch it.”
Karen Dawn, Thanking the Monkey: Rethinking the Way We Treat Animals

“Fur ranchers choose the cheapest, not the kindest, kill methods, the main concern being the preservation of the whole coat. Many ranchers use anal electrocution, which fries the animal from the inside out, microwave style. At FurIsDead.com there is footage of animals undergoing anal electrocution, including an unsuccessful attempt repeated on the same animal. We also see a farmer who injects insecticide into the chests of minks, who die convulsing in agony over many minutes.”
Karen Dawn, Thanking the Monkey: Rethinking the Way We Treat Animals – A Fun, Non-Preachy Primer on Rights, Food, and Activism

“To make a forty-inch fur coat it takes between thirty and two hundred chinchilla, or sixty mink, fifty sables, fifty muskrats, forty-five opossums, forty raccoons, thirty-five rabbits, twenty foxes, twenty otters, eighteen lynx, sixteen coyotes, fifteen beavers, or eight seals.”
