Rabbit's Fur Vogue; Was
Pest, Now Showing Profit
. , . . , .
; WELLINGTON. New Zealand
Modern woman's fondness for furs
Is enabling this country to turn
it3 rabbit pest into a source of
profit.
For many years multitudes of
rabbits were slaughtered merely
to keep them from destroying the
crops. With the discovery, how
ever, that the rabbit's coat coull
be dyed and made to look like a
more expensive fur. he became an
asset instead of a liability.
Last year IS. ",00.000 rabbit
skins were exported from New
Zealand to the United States and
England. These skins were val
ued at upwards $4,000,000. Rabbit
trapping has now become a well
established and renunierative bus
iness. t
The opossum is another animal
which New Zealand is turning into
profit. America takes most of the
blue and grey opossum sKius. The
darker furs go largely to Great
Britain.
