South African animal rights activists try to stop a shipment of over 60,000 goats, sheep, and cows to Kuwaiti abattoir, saying many of them would die en route
Cows stand in a grassland meadow among flowers near Darling on the outskirts of Cape Town, South Africa, Wednesday, October 10, 2012.
An inspection of the Al Shuweikh vessel revealed miserable and crammed conditions, the National Council of Societies for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals said. "The sheep were fighting for food, there was no shelter, including in the hospital pens, some animals looked underfed with ocular and nasal discharge. Some were blind, limping and bruised all over their bodies," Wilson said.
