Velcro straps are two different types of material that are fastened together when pressed together face to face. They are typically made of a plastic material with small hoops on one side. On the other separate piece small loops make it so the two merge together. They make a ripping sound when pulled apart.

No. Velcro is man made
The word velcro is a portmanteau of the words "velours" and "crochet".
The loop side of Velcro is smooth and soft. The hook side of Velcro is rough and scratchy. The hooks catch on the loops to stick them together.
Velcro is the Velcro Industries product name for hook and loop fastener, typically manufactured as tape, either adhesive backed or non-adhesive backed.
