Drowning Animals
Drowning animals
Humanities problem is that we don´t care
about animals well-being, there is scant respect.
A ship, probably old, took a freight of thousands of cattle
to an Arabic country so they could be slaughtered
according to religious law.
The ship sank in a storm.
Can anyone imagine the horror and suffering of animals
drowning in a sea of not their choosing, and how many
animals the ship carried to their horrific death?
This trade-in live animal is a sin against decency; it does
not for a moment regard the stress the creatures suffer.
Is there not another way.
There is, but this lucrative brutal trade will not stop unless
done so by law.
