In the morning we took a short bus trip to Kashgar Livestock
market where we saw various animals brought in for trading.
There were cattle, sheep, goats, horses, donkeys and even some camels. Various other trades were selling things from rope harnesses for the animals, small clay ovens, pitch forks, and even shoes.
We even saw one of the cattle get slaughtered there and
then. We can only presume that it must have got a serious injury as it got out
of the truck and they therefore decided to put it down straight away. They
simply cut its throat and after a while someone came with a small tuk tuk truck
and took it away, no doubt a local butcher.
