Baby foxes, raccoon dogs and minks are being forced to live in cramped and filthy cages on fur farms in China, born to die for fashion items.
The heart wrenching footage also captured a raccoon dog cub struggling to walk on the wire mesh floor of its cage, while mink are forced to circle around in dirty cages, above piles of excrement.
Investigators also witnessed older animals exhibiting behaviours signifying psychological distress, such as repetitively pacing their tiny cages - barely bigger than their bodies.
