\nbut industrialization has changed everything… and the donkey population in the country has gone from 11 million to just 6 million in just 20 years. That’s almost half.<\/p>\n
\nIndirectly, the number of slaughterhouses also increased, which led to the contamination of aquifers with serious consequences for public health.<\/p>\n
