This is why Cape Town smells

And when they do I will look at their kak reasoning and point too. Now why are these cows being transported live?

I am not privy to the agreements between the shipper and consignee, if you have this info you are more than welcome to share.

If its about religion you would need to provide evidence that all Muslim countries import live animals.

This could very easily be an economic choice.

Human life > cow life.

We don't even own and and trade in humans anymore. That is generally considered bad, it was called slavery. A child isn't the property of the parents. It is a completely different relationship.

I'm not sure you know how this religion thing works. Maybe go read your holy book again and see what it tells you about cows

Well it is some shít. Pretty disgusting considering it is pooled up that high on what is assumed to be a metal floor. I have only seen simular conditions in dirt floor feedlots that get muddy.

You are very dramatic, it is not ideal, and I do not like factory farming that confine animals in small spaces in general, but it is not like these animals are being tortured. They are mostly fine. Confiscating/Stealing them is still wrong.

If you ever worked with cattle, they do shít on themselves and each other.

I don't get your anti human views, maybe you should get out of your flat and actually interact with some real animals.

You have no idea of what you are talking about.

Feedlots and other feed yards are controlled by environmental laws and systems to ensure that cattle (or other animals) don't **** on one another as it not healthy for them or even for when they need to send them to the abbatoir. as the microorganism count would be extreme and could be a major potential hazard and risk

Most feedlots are outside and not in barns but if they are in barns then the floor is layered with straw or some other product that gets swept up often and replaced to remove the **** and p!ss.

I am still yet to see a major feedlot in South Africa that is indoors for cloven hoof animals, most indoor feedlots for these type of animals are in countries where the winters get really cold and snowy.

And NO, animals don't go around sh!tting on themselves and each other unless they have no option

Apparently to supplement the breeding stock in Iran. The had a drought and lost a lot of livestock, so they need to replenish.
Last I checked slaughtered frozen cows cannot breed.
Heard the first on Cape Talk

You are talking about professional commercials operations. My one bad example that I mentioned was not that.

There's plenty of dodgy small scale cattle farms and the treatment of the animals vary greatly.

But just look at this ship. You are basically trying to argue that what happened on this ship never happens, but I can guarantee you every trip they do is like this.

I did wonder about this, makes sense. Also why they don't care about the condition, these animals won't get slaughtered.
