Poor guy never figured out how to make shears in Minecraft 😔😔😔
F in the chat please, boys
Took me a while to figure that out too ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
My ex thought the only way to get llama wool was to kill the llama. For some reason, this logic only applied to llamas, she understood sheep wool didn’t require the same sort of blood sacrifice.

that’s actually not true. All wool sheep go to slaughter. When they’re no longer useful, they end up dead and on someone’s plate.
I mean they are certainly shorn more than once before that happens, so I wouldn’t exactly say it’s a blood sacrifice.
never mind that they often get cut quite badly because the shearers are on such a tight deadline.
Once again, they are not skinned alive to make a sweater so not exactly what my ex pictured happened for yarn products.

Natural lifespan? What natural life span? Sleep are unable to survive in the wild for more then a few years before the amount of wool they grow will cause their bodies to cook themselves. They are dependent on humans sheering them to live out their “natural” lifespan. Ultimately they, along with all animals we have breed for service are not natural any more.
yeah, because we bred them that way. there are nautrally occurring sheep that don’t need to be shorn all the time, and they do just fine.
One of the cutest things I’ve ever seen was at a county fair. A woman was combing this enormously fluffy angora rabbit, and spinning the fluff directly into yarn. I have never seen another bunny reach such cat-worthy levels of smug satisfaction in my life.
Yeah, uh, in mass production they’re treated like garbage, cut up during shearing, abused, crammed into tiny shitty conditions. They’re not inherently killed to produce wool but they do often die in relation to being treated as raw material for production.
And when they stop being profitable (by not producing top-quality wool as they age), they do get slaughtered for meat.
And what fur is
What do you think we do with sheep once they no longer provide a sufficient amount of wool?
Force them into an unending elder care program designed to squeeze every last penny from them, while providing the bare minimum of care possible?
Animals bred for wool typically end up getting slaughtered for meat as soon as they stop being profitable, so they’re actually not wrong.

How do you know the wool came from animals that are now too old to produce?
