Life inside a Shandong donkey farm

Ejiao is a traditional Chinese medicine made from donkey hide. To guarantee the quality of the medicine, manufacturers need healthy donkeys.

Dong'e Ejiao Co, a manufacturer of ejiao, raises male black donkeys in Shandong province.

The animals eat straw twice a day and have their own “fitness center” to stay active, and they provide sperm to be used at 20 breeding centers nationwide.
