Video Description

In Dhaka, Bangladesh, thousands of workers step into toxic blue water every single day, risking their health just to survive. Chemicals eat through their skin, untreated waste floods the streets, and yet the world keeps buying. But the story begins earlier. During Eid al-Adha, millions of animals are sacrificed in just a few days. The food is wild—but that’s only half the story. Nearly nine million hides are stripped, hauled through alleys, and transformed into leather in some of the toughest and most toxic conditions on earth. This is the human cost of leather – where survival means walking through poison, and sacrifice fuels one of the world’s largest leather industries. 🎥 Credits Host: Andrew Fraser Editor: Toms D.
