Now skim the passage and answer the questions.
In Jammu and Kashmir, India’s northernmost state and the only place a worldwide ban on trade in Tibetan antelope doesn’t apply, workers in the industry deny the creatures are killed at all. Asks Hashmatullah Khan of the Kashmir Handicraft Traders Welfare Association: "Who would kill the goose that lays the golden egg?" Khan insists that weavers use only hair the animals leave behind after brushing against bushes and shrubs. Conservationists say that’s a myth perpetuated by a misinformed retail industry. Urging an end to the shahtoosh trade, they point out that there aren’t any bushes and shrubs on the plateau to brush up against.
