Our country is facing a "shortage of donkeys" crisis, with donkey meat prices soaring, causing businesses to switch to selling horse meat for profit.

No joke, China is currently facing a "donkey shortage" crisis. The number of donkeys is far below market demand, and the price of donkey products continues to rise. Due to the rising price of donkey meat, some honest and trustworthy store owners have even directly changed their products to "horse meat buns". It is understood that there is currently a significant shortage of donkeys in China, which is caused by multiple reasons, and in the short term, there is no quick way to fill the gap. On September 22, the head of the Donkey Industry Branch of the China Animal Husbandry Association confirmed to China News Weekly that China is lacking donkeys: "Currently, we do not lack cattle or horses, just donkeys."
