as an artist, textiles & fibre arts enthusiast and make-up lover, it is heartbreaking to see one if the most brilliant naturally created colours go this way. They are animals, sure, but they don't have a brain or central nervous system so don't even feel pain. Vegans need to leave well enough alone and let people continue as their ancestors did, farming and harvesting and using this precious dye that looks so red like it's the heart of all the world's colours... don't let this bleed out and be gone forever! It is far too precious!!
