More evidence for the idea that man is inherently bad.

This has come up before on the shaving forums because badger fur is one of the best materials for good shaving brushes and is primarily sourced out of China.
Even if only one farm in a dozen treats their beasts this way, it's a real shame.

Wait....there's a shaving forum?

The video was fairly horrible...seems like it would be easier to kill them first actually so it comes across as being intentionally inhumane.
