Talk:Tibetan antelope

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Requires Killing??

Okay, so on the Shahtoosh page, it says that the animal sheds its down, and that nomads used to gather it this way. Then on the animal's page here, it says that you can't get the material without killing the creature. Which is accurate? Someone please coordinate! Kilyle 19:25, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

The species is listed in the IUCN Red List and is included in CITES. It is a major target species of TRAFFIC International -- clearly they all believe that the shahtoosh trade is endangering the species!!! --GRM 10:12, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] No controversy?

Should there be mention of the controversy or not? Erik-the-red
