When it comes to fur, Kohl's keeps trying to pass off the real thing as fake.
The department store's Web site on Tuesday was selling a parka with a "faux-fur" trimmed hood, but an investigation by the Humane Society of the US found otherwise.
In fact, the garment's own inner tag indicated that the fur was "raccoon" from China, the group noted. But testing by the Humane Society's labs found that the trim was harvested from a raccoon dog.
The cute, fluffy, fox-like species was at the center of a 2005 furor after animal groups filmed Chinese farmers skinning them alive. Nevertheless, the raccoon dogs continue to be a favorite faux-fur replacement, said the Humane Society's PJ Smith.
"We're trying to tell Kohl's that it's not worth being associated with cruelty and misrepresentation," Smith said.
Last December, the Humane Society caught Kohl's advertising a faux-fur-trimmed bag that was, in fact, trimmed with rabbit, it said.
Kohl's officials didn't respond to requests for comment, but the retailer removed the offending jacket from its site late Tuesday afternoon.
