A Donkey's demise

As I have said before on here, I have loved donkeys since my childhood, and support the Donkey Sanctuary. So I was very upset to see this evil trade is not only still going, but getting much worse too.
I confess I didn’t watch the video, because I know it would stay in my head all day and that won’t help me, or the donkeys.

More extreme cruelty just for the sake of human ‘Beauty Products.’ How many people ever bother to research the rubbish they spend money on? Even if they knew, would they care?

For those who are stronger than me, here’s more info.

This is so sad donkeys are abused all over the world and now this .

Yes. I agree, Muddy.
It really upsets me.

It’s like in the evil brick works too.
Why don’t people care an more?

So many people do care Mups but the task is so big .
I support the Brooke Hospital for Horses which looks after horses and Donkeys in the Middle East .
I have seen the good work that they do .
Unfortunately people in these areas themselves have hard brutish lives they don’t have any compassion for the donkeys treating them as wheelbarrows.
Also sometimes in tourist area protesters risk the wrath of the donkey owners

These are good people in a country that doesn’t even respect human life.

It’s awful. I’ve always had a soft spot for donkey’s too and love the donkey sanctuary. My friend knits the little donkeys for them to sell
So many of these Chinese medicines seem to involve brutal cruelty to animals. I suppose education is the way forward, but the plight of these poor creatures now is sickening

How people can be so cruel to such gentle animals, I just don’t know :confounded:

That’s how I feel too, Mags.
I wish I could rescue them all, then make those people take their place.
Then they might understand the treatment they’ve dished out to these poor animals.

For one terrible moment there I thought Assman had kicked the bucket.
