Feature: Global live transport misery
PLEASE BE AWARE, THIS FOOTAGE IS SHOCKING.
Each week, hundreds of millions of animals endure journeys lasting hours, days, weeks or months, in cramped conditions on their way to slaughter. They experience stress and exhaustion, hunger and thirst, extreme temperatures and rough handling as they are moved across the world. Yet, we have the technology to transport fresh chilled and frozen meat making long distance transport unnecessary.
Visit www.handlewithcare.tv/rspca to call for an end to the trade in live animals over long distances and the rigorous enforcement of EU animal welfare standards.
