Kopi Luwak, which is ranked as the top 10 most expensive coffee in the world, is of course valuable. In addition to its taste, its uniqueness lies in its "planting" method. Kopi Luwak (Kopi Luwak) is produced in Indonesia, also known as "civet coffee". Indonesian civets (Luwak) have eaten coffee cherry berries, and coffee merchants take beans from their feces to make cat poop coffee beans with a unique taste.

Therefore, cat shit coffee is often labeled as a "wild source", but the Organization for the good treatment of Animals (PETA) has revealed that many civets are not "wild" but are confined to narrow, barren cages and forced to feed for a long time.

The number of wild civets is limited. In the past, merchants may pick up coffee beans excreted by wild civets from the forest, but with the increasing market demand, PETA found that some unjust businessmen even imprisoned civets for exorbitant profits.

In its article "HELP CIVETS SUFFERING FOR CRUEL COFFEE", PETA pointed out that investigators from its Asia division had visited coffee farms in Indonesia and the Philippines, two major civet coffee breeding places. They found that the vast majority of civets were "imprisoned" for at least three years, and some farm breeders even revealed:

There can be no wild civets.

However, civets with pointed mouths and dark gray fur are free by nature and like to play in the woods. If they are imprisoned in a cage, they will express their dissatisfaction on hunger strike. However, businessmen still force them to obey, and civets trapped in cages are often fed berries that are taller than them for a long time.

As can be seen from the footage taken by PETA, the civet paced back and forth, turned frantically, shook its head and gnawed at the cage and other nervous tension.

Reflect that they are in a state of continued madness and depression.

PETA also pointed out that civets are omnivorous animals that eat different ripe fruits. However, under forced feeding, they lose normal food and lose their feathers due to lack of nutrition and long-term pressure.

Overwork and the loss of feathers make them often weak to death.

Therefore, PETA urges the public not to misbelieve wild Kopi Luwak and to avoid buying and enjoying Kopi Luwak to help put an end to the inhumane treatment of civets.
