What clothes does animals give us?

Answer 1

Animals give us wool from sheep and the llama family. Wool bearing animals do not need to be killed in order to give wool, but if they are slaughtered, then their wool stays attached to their hide and can be made into coats. Animals give us leather from the bovine, deer, pig and reptile families. All animals that give leather are killed to do so. Animals also give us coats from fur bearing animals such as minks, foxes, rabbits, beavers... all fur bearing animals are slaughtered to give their fur. Ostriches also give leather and must die to do so. Goats give us sweaters from their hair, but goat hair can be harvested without the goat dying. Geese and ducks have down which can be extracted without killing the birds, especially if one waits for them to molt, but usually it is extracted when the birds are slaughtered for food. Down is put into coats and other clothing which is designed to keep us warm. Some dog hair is spun into clothing. Horse hair can also be used for clothing but often is not in Western cultures. When it is, it is made into belts. Bird feathers, like the peacock is made into fancy hats.
