At least 5.9 million #donkeys are slaughtered for their skins every year.

The collagen from donkey skins is used to create ejiao, a quack Chinese medicine. Due to the enormous demand for this nonsense, there are no donkeys in China. The industry is now sourcing skins from around the world, causing the collapse of donkey populations across Africa, Asia, and Latin America.

With such intense demand, this abhorrent trade often leads to donkeys being slaughtered and skinned during the night.
