I beg to differ. We raise cows for food, the left overs (skin/hide) is recycled into clothing, food for other animals, binding for books, etc. Not one part of that animal is wasted. There is a huge difference between raising animals to slaughter soley for their hides and raising animals for food and then making sure everything is used so there isn't any waste.
Same for gators & rattlesnakes- they are sold as food and their hides are turned into clothing. I abhor the practice and do not eat or wear anything that is of an animal I will not first use as a food source.
Generally, we do not torture an animal (sewing it's mouth shut, removing teeth) for entertainment purposes. This is just wrong.
