Are there any animal products which are not the result of exploitation or cruelty (hypothetically)? For instance, wool comes to my mind as a product that could be obtained in a completely animal friendly manner. Just curious what you think.

    Basically any animal-derived product, means that there is necessarily an industry around its production, which means the objectification and commodification of animal bodies.

    You can find a lot of longer expose’s online of what these animal clothing industries are really like.

      Thanks. I guess I have to agree that in reality it would be impossible to build an industry around animal products.
