Young Blonde Girl With A Fur Coat

Animal fur, if layered, rather than grown as a single coat, may consist of short ground hair, long guard hair, and, in some cases, medium awn hair. Mammals with reduced amounts of fur are often called "naked", as in The Naked Ape, naked mole rat, and naked dogs. An animal with commercially valuable fur is known within the fur industry as a furbearer (fur clothing). The use of fur as clothing and/or decoration is considered controversial by some people, most animal rights advocates object to the trapping and killing of wildlife, and the confinement and killing of animals on fur farms.
