Talk:Shahtoosh

Reverted Change
In November 2009 this sentence:
 * "It is a long-perpetuated false claim, however, that nomads gathered Chiru down from rocks and bushes, after it was naturally shed"

was changed to this:


 * "It is a long-perpetuated false claim, however, that To obtain the down fur, the animals must be hunted and killed. To obtain the down fur, nomads gathered Chiru down from rocks and bushes, after it was naturally shed by the animals."

This changes the meaning. I am reverting it back to the previous and correct statement. It is well documented that the Tibetan antelope are killed for their fur. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pokiepuppy (talk • contribs) 22:42, 18 June 2010 (UTC)
