Wild animal gets skinned alive

TBN0405S.jpg

The picture on the front page of today's The Beijing News is quite bloody: a marten (a relative of the weasel) was skinned alive by a villager in Hebei province. More than 60% of wild fur in the Chinese market is from this small village. Skinning wild animals is a common phenomenon there.

The leading headline is: Beijing 7th Ring Road may be built as "U" shape. For more on this scintillating topic, see this earlier Danwei post.

Comments on Wild animal gets skinned alive

i have seen a video of these same savage filthy people skinning these beautiful creatures alive, it was the most horrific thing i have every witnessed, and was left and am still left disturbed. i feel ashamed to be related to these same people, the whole human race pretends we are a nice species yet we are all responsible for the actions of these people. i hope all the humans die soon and leave the world to all the other animals. i will se you all in hell.. james tainton.
