This is so heartbreaking and sad. I honestly could not watch the video but read all the details.
What I cannot understand is this:
"A spokeswoman for the RSPCA confirmed it was investigating whether the video shows breaches of animal welfare laws, but would not put a timeframe on these deliberations."
Especially bearing in mind this:
“The vision made publicly available by Peta overnight shows sheep being beaten with shearing handpieces and thrown down a chute,” the RSPCA said.
Whether the video shows breaches of animal welfare laws?? Dear Lord!
This cruel abuse of these gentle sheep is just horrific. Those "ag-gag" laws need to be broken right good-and-proper. By as many people as possible starting right now!
Fortunately, what I know and have heard of animal welfare activists they have steel for bones, and will not shut up.
Is there a petition around concerning not only the widespread abuse in sheep-shearing, but those actual laws?
