PETA supporters protest against the fur trade outside the Danish embassy in London, England on November 11, 2020. The protest follows the Danish government's proposal to kill all minks in the country's fur industry – up to 17 million animals – after a potentially vaccine-resistant, mutated strain of the novel coronavirus spread from minks to fur farm workers and several other humans. Denmark is the largest mink fur producer in the world. Around 1,500 facilities in the country tear off the skins of approximately 16 million minks per year.
