A ship carrying 19,000 cattle that docked in Cape Town on February 18 has been blamed for causing an “unimaginable” stench across the South African city and prompted protesters to call for a ban on live animal exports. Members of the NSPCA who were called in to inspect the ship after residents complained about the smell described finding “abhorrent” scenes, with animals living in ”dams of their own excrement”.

  1. If you treat animals like this, you are no normal human being and deserve to be treated the same way..
    Cause then you are avery big loser. Animals deserve to be treated well

  2. This sort of transport should be banned. Are they being transported to be slaughtered?
    All animal transport on this scale should be banned!!! These animals get sea sick as well!
    Absolutely disgusting that living beings should be transported in this way!!!

  3. This is disgusting ? Which country transport live animals ? How cruel they do not have a GOD people should stop eating beef for a year or pigs or lamp so this abuse for profit goes bankrupt 😢😢😢

  4. Its the Arabs, that have also been the main Slave traders through out history.
    So no surprise about the cruelty here !

  5. I am extremely happy I converted over to being a vegan. It has improved my overall health greatly and I sleep better knowing I am not contributing suffering.

    I can't wait for synthetic meats his the main stream so even those who refuse to give up meat can stop contributing to cruelty as a part of their addiction.

  6. How can you let Animals suffer like this just because of money!!!????.Money is going to be the death of humans and sadly animals too.😢😢😢

  7. If we all agreed that these animals have gone through hell in just a few weeks at sea, now imagine what my ancestors went through during the era of transatlantic slave trade. They were tied up in their own faeces, beaten with whips by white slave traders, and starved for multiple weeks on their way to the New World.
