how come so many people consider shaving sheeps for their wool animal cruelty? THEY DON`T KILL THE ANIMALS! anyway, they shave the skin in the summer. The sheep prolly like it better because they dont have to have all that fur on their back in the heat. Explain to me how this is animal cruelty, because I really want to know.

QUOTE sheep are made to be used by humans... if they werent used then thed die because of all their wool... Animals exist for their own purposes...none are "made" for people. Sheep skin farming is obviously animal cruelty because they are killing the sheep for their skin, which is ridiculous considering we live in the 21st century and animal skin imitations are just like the real thing. The shearing of a sheep's wool would not be cruel if it were done properly and carefully, but alas I've read that sheep farmers are often paid by quantity and not hours spent so many rush and end up injuring the sheep in the process.
