The section on production needs to be edited for grammar; I don't know how to edit grammar for links. I think it should read, Large farms exist to raise mink and rabbit for fur, while many foxes, lynxes, wolves, and other animals are trapped for fur.
Also, it's confusing that it's talking about fur production when it's supposed to be talking about hides, which are basically leather. Should this page be confined to talking about leather versus extending the topic to furs? I don't think it should be.
I have looked this page up and seems it is mostly talking about leather, but what I wish to know is what is the difference between leather and hide. If I need to read about leather, I would go to the leather page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.45.122.178 (talk) 02:15, 11 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
Changed as you suggest – if you open the section for editing you'll see how I've done it. You might like to look at Help:link which explains how links work.
You are right that the production section needs expanding to cover leather too. Richard New Forest (talk) 10:15, 17 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
