Podcasts about fur industry

The fur industry has a long history in the state of Missouri, and while it looks different now – it's still around. Rebecca Smith recently went to the annual Missouri fur auction and brings us this look at fur trapping's role in the community and in conservation.

This week, Kate talks about how far away Haliburton's early fur industry attracted interest from as far as away as New York State. Not bad for a small rural County without great access at the time. Plus, Paul talks about George Orton who was Canada's first Olympic gold medalist. It all happened at the 1900 Paris Olympics - but he wasn't officially recognized as Canadian until over 70 years later. On top of his many accomplishments, he did it all with a disability that he didn't let hold him back. Kate Butler is the Director of the Haliburton Highlands Museum. Paul Vorvis is the host of the Your Haliburton Morning Show 7 - 9 a.m. Fridays on Canoe FM 100.9 and streaming on your devices. Haliburton County is in cottage country about 2 1/2 hours north of Toronto. You can contact us at timewarp@canoefm.com

In Episode 37 of Paw & Order, Camille and Peter catch up on the six horse deaths in Calgary Stampede chuckwagon races (get ready for a lengthy discussion of whether rodeo events are illegal), a great column on why the Stampede needs to ditch animal events, golf course staff running down Canada geese with a golf cart in Edmonton, the fur industry's paid protesters in California, and the CFIA's effort to quash a lawsuit about cruel horse transport practices.

Often maligned and even more often misunderstood, we decided with Winter upon us we would tackle the subject of fur in the fashion industry.

This week we see how Denmark is meeting China's growing demand for fur in the luxury fashion sector, in a follow up to our feature on China's job market in 2013, it seems postgraduate students are having a tough time, and we see what's being done to ensure the foundations of China's economic development, Small and Medium Sized Enterprises, have a bright future ahead.
