It revolves around the idea that people enjoy animals, but only in the way that involves them dead and skinned. From [cheetah print purses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coachtopia-1) to crocodile skin boots, many people have come in contact with animals, but not in the way animals would like them to.
