After learning from PETA that donkeys are confined to filthy concrete pens, beaten with sticks, and struck in the head with a sledgehammer so that their skins can be boiled down to make gelatin for a Chinese “medicine” called ejiao, Walmart stopped selling products containing this cruelly produced ingredient. Now, the company sells only alternatives to ejiao, such as herbal medicines.
“Almost all of us grew up eating meat, wearing leather, and going to circuses and zoos. We never considered the impact of these actions on the animals involved. For whatever reason, you are now asking the question: Why should animals have rights?”
— Ingrid E. Newkirk, PETA President and co-author of Animalkind
