🎉 #AnimalWelfare #charities have welcomed an #Africa-wide ban on the controversial donkey skin trade

It will make it illegal to slaughter #donkeys for their skin in 55 countries across the continent

Demand for the animals' skins is fuelled by the popularity of an ancient #Chinese #medicine called #Ejiao, traditionally made from donkey hides

African state leaders approved the ban at the conclusion of the #AfricanUnion summit in #Ethiopia on Sunday
