Industri cerpelai di Denmark

Mink pelts at Kopenhagen Fur.

Industri cerpelai di Denmark memproduksi 40 persen dari produk bulu seluruh dunia, sehingga menjadikan Denmark sebagai penghasil kulit cerpelai terbesar di dunia.[1][2] Ranked third in Denmark's agricultural export items of animal origin, fur and mink skins have a yearly export value of about EUR 0,5 billion. Kopenhagen Fur, located in Copenhagen, is the world's largest fur auction house; annually, it sells approximately 14 million Danish mink skins produced by 2,000 Danish fur farmers, and 7 million mink skins produced in other countries.[3] Mink produced in Denmark is considered to be the finest in the world and is ranked by grade, with the best being Saga Royal, followed by Saga, Quality 1, and Quality 2.[3][4]

In November 2020, a mutated strain of COVID-19 known as "cluster 5" was detected among minks, leading the Danish Government to order the culling of 17 million minks in order to prevent a resurgence in COVID-19 cases.[5][6]
