- A touching tribute to the lowly placed donkey in its struggle to survive new threats and misconceptions about its role where it faces continued hardship. In some countries, the withdrawal of the donkey as a beast of burden could cause severe poverty for their owners. An investigation into the global extent of the ejiao trade and the means by which donkeys are being taken to slaughterhouses for their skins. How can safeguards protect the donkey from the worst forms of abuse?
