The vast majority of fur coats sold today come from animals raised on farms. In the United States, the figure is about eighty percent. Those coats are made of fox or mink -- by far the best-selling fur. In addition, chinchilla, fitch, finnraccoon and nutria are raised in smaller numbers. The most popular wild animals used for fur coats are beaver, raccoon, muskrat, coyote, fox, nutria, lynx, fisher and even some mink.
