- Legenda: Karachi (Pakistan), 24/11/2024.- Vendors sell donkeys at famous donkey market in Karachi, Pakistan, 24 November 2024. The price of donkeys in Pakistan has soared to PKR 300,000 (around 1,080 USD) due to rising demand from China for donkey hides, which are used in cosmetics and traditional medicines, according to sellers at the market. This surge has led to a decline in local buyers at markets like Karachi's Lehari donkey market, as the high prices make them unaffordable for many. The growing global demand for natural resources in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals has significantly influenced domestic markets, with no signs of demand slowing down. In June 2023, Pakistan approved the export of donkey hides to China, formalizing trade agreements to meet this increasing demand, which also includes the potential export of other goods like cattle and dairy products.
