Description
Fur-Bearer Defenders (Association for the Protection of Fur-Bearing Animals) is a non-profit society working to stop trapping cruelty and protect fur-bearing animals. Our society registration number is S-4222. We have specialized in the trapping cruelty issue since our inception in 1944, and have earned a solid reputation, providing information and resources to the media, government, activists, and the public. Fur-Bearer Defenders (previously known as The Fur-Bearers) has members throughout the world, and is managed by a volunteer Board of Directors. Two Board members, George and Bunty Clements, have been with the Association and dedicating their lives to the cause for over 30 years. We are completely funded by donations and memberships of caring individuals. Fur-Bearer Defenders has been widely recognized for our unique and compelling videos on trapping, and our collection of photographs of animals alive and struggling in traps. In the early 1980's, Fur-Bearer Defenders was key in launching a massive campaign to expose trapping cruelty in Europe. We made several trips to Europe, demonstrating traps and showing never before seen cruel trapping footage and photos to the public and government officials in the then 15-country European Union (EU).
