Stop the trade of donkeys to China

The Issue

China currently imports tens of thousands of donkeys primarily from African nations in order to slaughter them. They do this in order to extract gelatin from the donkey hides. Innocent animals are being shipped overseas and butchered in order to produce ejiao, a traditional Chinese medicine with dubious qualities.

Donkeys are extremely sensitive, sentient, animals that suffer horribly at the hands of humans already through overburdening and mistreatment.

Please sign this petition to try to prevent further import of these sweet creatures,
