Rejected petition End live exports of animals because animals are not freight!

Over 67000 innocent animals were killed in a fire 20 years ago because they were livestock being exported. This is just one example of the horrific suffering of farm animals being exported, as if they were nothing more than dirt on our shoe.

More details

Many suffer animals suffer exhaustion, dehydration and just sheer panic on there export journey. So urge the government to end this cruel practice of exporting live animals because they deserve to be treated with dignity and animals should not EVER have to suffer like this!
