Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
The current method of collecting silk from cocoons includes boiling and destroying the cocoons. 5500 silkworms are killed to produce 1 kilogram of silk. Animal rights advocates oppose this procedure since it entails the mass slaughter of silkworms. The silk is removed from the cooked cocoons. The boiling destroys the developing butterfly inside the cocoons. As a result, many butterflies are now endangered.
