I support this cause with conviction. I am so against the trade in live animals to countries who do not treat them with respect and in fact slaughter animals in the most inhumane way. It took Animals Australia to bring this shocking treatment of animals to the attention of Australians as the industry are more interested in their massive profits than in what was happening to the cattle once they left our shores. They have known for years what was happening and yet did nothing except put into the abatoirs in Indonesia a cruel "box" that the animal is put into. This box only made the slaughter even more inhumane. I have watched the Live Meat Ass. try to justify this practise by saying they did not know. I am not convinced that is true. I am hoping the trade will be stopped and that at last this country will stand up to the demands of foreign countries. They like our beef then buy it in a pre packed box!

All I can say is.... you had said it all! We should be humane to all animals. Thanks to Animals Australia who brought live animal export to our notice. Stop sending live animals overseas! I understand local farmers will loose money..... well our government can help, instead of looking for ways to ensure they are successful the next election. We should snot stress any living think, animal or human.
