WA TO PROBE SHEEP SHIP

The WA Agriculture Department has assembled a team to investigate another disastrous live export voyage to the Middle East last year in which thousands of sheep died of heat stress.
When is someone going to have the balls to say enough is enough. These poor animals if they survive the horrendous trip die a horrendous death - sounds very attractive to me - NOT !!

The West Australian revealed last month that a Perth-based live exporter Emanuel Exports lost almost 2,500 sheep during a run to the Persian Gulf in August.
That incident followed a 2016 episode when the same company admitted losing about 3,000 sheep on a trip to the Middle East, also to heat stress.
Yet no one has done a damn thing about it, it's okay they are only sheep!!

The decision by the State Government to investigate the 2017 episode is significant.
Geez what do you want a medal?? Why haven't you investigated before now?? 

It is the first time in more than a decade that a State agency has attempted to investigate an animal cruelty case involving a live exporter and questions remain about jurisdiction. Live export investigations are normally carried by the Federal Government agencies.
Though the sheep died overseas, the State Government believes it has the authority to investigate because they were loaded in Fremantle.
I am sure it didn't make it any less painful for the sheep that they died overseas!!

For years and years people use to campaign at Fremantle about the live sheep trade and they were ignored all the time.  It is such a shame that it has taken such a huge loss of sheep to get anyone's attention.
