Live Export stuck in Suez Canal

she's stranded in the middle of a cargo ship jam...

The situation in the Suez Canal where a container ship has been blocking trade for a week has again highlighted the unacceptable risk of live export. 200,000 animals across 18 live export ships have been caught up in the chaos, most of them from Romania where a media storm has erupted and political pressure to end the trade is at an all-time high.

TAKE ACTION now for Romanian live export victims
Left stranded: A sheep from Romania on board a ship stuck in the Suez Canal jam, whose final destination is Jordan in the Middle East.

Our Animals International team has been working day and night to give a voice to these animals and have fronted dozens of media stories highlighting the cruelty and risks of the live export trade.

Even as the 'traffic' began to flow again through the Suez overnight, ships carrying goods were prioritised over animals whose welfare is only further compromised by every day of delay. We're working every angle possible to ensure these animals are not forgotten.

This incident comes at a time that live animal export out of Europe is facing immense scrutiny — the result of years of our global investigations, and those of our colleagues within Europe. The European Parliament is undertaking an Inquiry into the future of the live export trade and in Romania, Europe's biggest exporting nation, opposition to the industry is growing rapidly.

Live export is animal cruelty!

There are not enough crew on those hell ships to hose out the stalls. When the sheep get to the destination the manure—pure poop—is up to their bellies and the poor beasts are breathing nearly pure ammonia!

If there is a delay in disembarking such animals as are still alive the lack of a ventilation that movement of the ship provides sees hellish temperatures in the holds where the sheep or cows are.

Stuff that! We can humanely slaughter the animals here, including the weird practice idiotic religions impose, put the dressed carcases into freezers and ship the meat like that.

More money in the country, more jobs. And no animals dying in travelling horror shows!
