Our new undercover investigation reveals yet another scandal of the fur "made in Italy".
After having discovered 2 coronavirus outbreaks in Italian mink farms, having documented (with unique images) violations of the biosecurity rules and serious conditions of suffering of animals imprisoned in tiny cages, we discovered yet another scandal: last August, in one of the 5 still active farms, 1,035 mink died of a sudden and extremely painful death due to food poisoning. According to the investigations carried out by the health authorities, the animals were given spoiled or contaminated chicken meat.
Having acquired this information, we were able to infiltrate an investigator to document, with images, a chilling discovery: the bodies of all 1,035 mink are stored, even today, in a cold room inside the farm (also together with the offal of chickens destined to feed the last 30 surviving mink of the farm).
The images we have released also show how, once again, anti-Covid measures aimed at avoiding the introduction of the pandemic virus into mink farms, already classified as potential reservoirs, are being violated.
