It's giving another reason why to kill animals, instead of giving this brutal act less reasons.
Is it necessary to put that fat in the money? No.
Can they do it with other material? Yes.
So why with?
Why justify one horribly violence with another one.
Why are you supportive of this idea instead of saying "what kind of idiocy is putting animal fat in money"?
Why protesting against this idea is being silly and not the idea itself being silly?

Will you say the same if it was animal fat of dogs who died for the Chinese market? Cats who died on the roads?

I don't think I've ever heard of animals being killed just for their fat. It's a byproduct so it's very doubtful that more animals are being killed just to harvest it so I completely disregard that point of yours until you can prove otherwise.

The animal is dead either way so why waste perfectly good materials? Again, would you rather the carcass be discarded and ultimately wasted? Remember that with or without Tallow, that animal will still be dead. Better to make use of it's parts than let it go to waste.

I'm not supportive of the idea, I ultimately don't care about Tallow being used on bank notes, I just think it's dumb to act like it's outrageous when the kinds of people that will protest this don't mind the animal parts being used in their clothes, shoes and other everyday items.

Like I said before, I believe in the native american principle of using as much of an animal as possible. Dogs will be killed for their meat in China regardless so why not use something that would ultimately be thrown away otherwise? Same goes for cats.

Same goes for me, I've got a donor card because I'd rather have my organs be used then left to rot or burn.
