Marni's negative impact on the environment



Marni first originated from Cansuelo Castiglioni's hustband's family fur business, which is why, Marni became known for its designs of fur. Although Marni's fur clothing is viewed as a symbol of elegance, these pieces have a negative impact on the original owner of these coats- the animals. According to PETA, millions of fur-bearing animals including foxes, raccoons, minks, coyotes, bobcats, lynxes, opossums, beavers, muskrats, otters, and others are killed each year by anal and vaginal electrocution or by drowning, trapping, and beating. Some of the methods are not 100% effective and some of the animals "wake up" while being skinned. Marni has not resolved any of these concerns, and still continues to profit from its fur clothing.
