Largest mink farm in the country is currently on fire
Updated 1:59 PST
A storage barn at the Zimbal Minkery is reportedly on fire as of noon, Monday. This story is still breaking, but here’s what is known:
- A pole barn is currently on fire at the farm, located at 6438 Abraham Court in Oostburg, WI; just outside of Sheboygan.
- This farm is the largest fur farm in the country, with over 200,000 mink.
- Early reports say it is a sawdust fire that has caused an estimated $2,000 damage to one of the barn walls and about $20,000 to $30,000 in damage to equipment.
- This is the second large mink farm in a two-state area to go up in flames in the past two weeks. On October 12th, a processing building at the Sonnenberg Mink Farm in Detroit Lakes, Minnesota went up in flames. No animals were hurt. It is believed the farm is the largest fur farm in Minnesota. The cause of the fire is unknown, but was speculated to be “accidental”.
This story will be updated as more information comes in.
Are the mink safely out of harms way?!
Yippee – sorry but this is such good news. I hope all these murdering animal farms burn down
I wish that all these farms burn down as well with the animals safely out of the way ..
Yes no animals were hurt..
That was exactly my thought Labradford. The article says no animals were hurt, but just living on a fur farm is torture for minks. I hope the farm has to close!
I am so happy I am in tears, that this farm burned down, with hopefully no harm to these precious creatures. These fur farm monsters must be stopped. I pray for the safety of all those from the organization that risk their lives and jail time, for this cause.
I love this! Some good news for today!
What’s the difference if animals are slaughtered for food or warmth? Farmers are hard working people who don’t except anyone to give them free hand outs. They respect other people property and help each other in time of need. Shame on the low-lifes who sin against the goodness of society.
Sharon, animals aren’t slaughtered for warmth, they’re slaughtered for vanity plain and simple. Modern textiles have far surpasted the stone age practice of killing innocent animals for their fur.
I guess you don’t know how they kill they animals??And a fur coat won’t keep you warm.And who give them the right to steal the fur from the animals.You want people to steal your skin??Think before you write.But perhaps you are an animal killer yourself ???
No difference, we should not slaughter other animals either. Go play your cheap tricks elsewhere.
..said the heartless bastard fur farmers wife… Does he keep you in a cage full of shit year on end and drag you out to rip your skin off after shoving an electrocuting rod up your anus or vagina ???
i love you guys 🙂 <3 ALF <3 thanx soo much for your awesome job you do 🙂 animals are depended on you
Happy that this concentration camp for animals is gone.
