Ananova - Mongoose population threatened by paint brush production

I really hate people who do things like this, who kill wild animals for stuff like flipping paint brushes. You know what's worse? They pluck the hair while the animals are still alive. That is -- there is no other sufficient word for it -- evil... Pressure is on the Indian government to up protection for the mongoose population, but they have other things on their minds right now.

UPDATE: John Braue (Hi, John, I can't get into your comments!) points out that it's evil and stupid, because they kill the animals (I don't know the plural of mongoose) after they pluck them. I didn't even think of that, but he's right.
