Why Are Animal Print Rugs So Much In Demand?
Once upon a time people used to hunt animals for their meat and skin. The meat used to keep them well fed and the skin well protected from the vagaries of nature. As they progressed in evolution, the animal skins found a place in their homes first used as sleeping rugs and later for beautification.
The History Of The Animal Print Rugs
That was once upon a time when human beings were primitive; then came an era when human beings developed a peculiar thirst for animal blood giving hunting the name of royal game where royalty and other people of influence chose to animals not for their meat (to eat) or skin (to cover) but for greed and relaxation.
At that time it was considered chic to have the hide of the animal you slew tanned and displayed on your wall in the drawing room, or as a rug on the floor in a prominent place. Almost all the kings would have some type or other animal rugs in their palaces along with huge stuffed animals that they hunted, or their heads as trophies.
The Animal Print Rugs Today
Thankfully, hunting is no more considered a great "sport" everywhere in the world as people realize that there is nothing glorious in killing an animal with the latest gun while hiding in a machan. However, the trend of having animal print rugs in your home has not yet died. Of course, today animal print rugs do not mean animal skin. In fact, if you would be careful, the very name indicates that this is not supposed to be the real skin - but only their prints.
In this way you have plenty to choose from - you could choose from the following animal print rugs - lion, tiger, zebra, goat, wild cat, leopard, panther, grizzly bear, polar bear, wolf and many more.
The rugs, no matter what type you would choose, would instantly make the room look prettier and interesting looking. Try putting one as the fist thing that your feet touch on the floor in the morning or in the drawing in front of your favorite arm chair and so on, and see the difference.
You will find that wherever you put the animal print rugs, there would be an instant and very beautiful change to the room and overall to the house. A word of warning - in case you use it on freshly polished wooden floors, you might need some anti skid tape under it, or you would risk injury by falling as soon as you put your foot on it.
