After worldwide condemnation over consumption of donkey meat,
a new initiative is aimed at embracing breeding of donkeys for
meat in the country.Donkey Sanctuary Kenya (DSK) are heading
the new progranmme, encouraging the consumption of donkey
meat as a new 'delicacy', so to speak.The DSK is aiming to get
Kenya onboard, namely all 42 tribes.DSK Managing Director,
Dancun Onduu revealed a census conducted two years ago
indicated there were 1.8 million donkeys in Kenya.He
emphasised plans are in motion to accommodate for the
consumption of the growing food source, “We will encourage
quick breeding of donkeys, especially for meat”, via The Standard
Digital.
The DSK is however also responsible for the livelihood of the
donkeys and encourages proper treatment of the animals, in light
of the growing amount of cases related to ill-treatment of
donkeys. Cases of donkeys being slaughtered and meat sold to
unsuspecting buyers have been rampant in Naivasha, says The
