China again! No surprises there.

You'd think after centuries of these medicines not working whatsoever they'd give up on them already... I'm all for preserving culture/tradition but not when it's so actively damaging.

Bezoars occur in some langurs and pangolins too, leading to the same result - animals hunted for them.
