New addresses: Possible bobcat and fox farms in Nebraska

The following address was obtained from public records, indicating a farm (or other type of operation) that imprisons foxes and / or bobcats in Nebraksa. Coalition Against Fur Farms has obtained hundreds of similar addresses from numerous states, each of which may be fur farms, which will be posted in the coming weeks. We will offer the same disclaimer each time: These addresses are uninvestigated. They house animals commonly used for fur, however an investigation is needed to determine the exact purpose of these operations. There are numerous other reasons furbearing animals can be held captive, including being bred for pets, roadside zoos, urine-collection operations for trapping lures, or penning operations to train hunting dogs. Some of these may be facilities which are helping animals. For example, wildlife rehabilitators and sanctuaries can often be required to have the same licenses as fur farms. Please do your research, and share anything learned with Coalition Against Fur Farms. These addresses are from the state of Nebraska’s “captive wildlife permit holder” list. The list did not include names, only addresses. 77458 Rd. 461 Pleasanton NE Notes: Bobcats Po Box 68 Cody NE Notes: Bobcats 203 Crook Ave Curtis NE Notes: Bobcats 110 Parker St Cambridge NE Notes: Bobcats & raccoons 88339 508th Ave Oneil NE Notes: Bobcats 20304 W Highway 31 Springfield NE Notes: Fox 56644 Highway 98 Winside NE Notes:...

New Wisconsin farm addresses: Confirmed to have mink and fox, need investigation

The following Wisconsin addresses were obtained by Coalition Against Fur Farms and need investigating. The below list represents farms / facilities confirmed to have either mink, foxes, or coyotes. However the numbers of animals held, and their purpose is unknown (though CAFF does not support the imprisonment of any animal for any reason). These addresses were obtained from a list of captive wildlife permit holders in Wisconsin. None of the known fur farms in the state are on the list, indicating strongly that these addresses are not fur farms. Many of the identifiable addresses on the list include facilities such as roadside zoos, and even places doing good for animals such as wildlife rehab operations. We offer these addresses only because they are listed as having mink, fox, or coyote, and their purpose is a mystery. Please send any information about these addresses to Coalition Against Fur Farms.

New Mink Farm Under Construction in Ohio?

Coalition Against Fur Farms has received word that a new mink farm is being constructed near the Indiana border in Ohio. Our tipster stated the address for this upcoming farm is: 2707 Hoaglin Rd Van wert, Ohio. 45891 The farm is said to be owned by a mink farmer from Holland, who owns several other farms. The word is he is paying a local farmer to set up and operate this farm. A quick Google search for the address shows that it belongs to “Lion Farms”, also the owner of this nearby mink farm in Nottingham, Indiana. A corresponding satellite image search does not reveal any obvious mink sheds at the Ohio address. This raises two possibilities: The operations are one and the same, with the Ohio address being a business address, and the animals held at the Indiana address (9555 S 250 E, Nottingham, Indiana). These are two separate farms owned by Lion Farms LLC, with the Ohio address still being under construction (as indicated by our tipster).
