Traders Process Hides Of Cattle For Eid Ul Adha

Traders at the city's main wholesale center, Atura Depot, dry the hides of cattle recently slaughtered for the Eid-ul-Adha celebrations in Chattogram, Bangladesh, on May 28, 2026. The hides are treated with salt during the initial processing stage to prevent decomposition and extend their shelf life for distribution to tanneries.
