Sigh

The Straits Times today ran an article on cattle abuse of Australian cattle sent to Indonesian slaughterhouses. Examples of the cruel treatment captured include whipping a bull in the face, gouging its eyes and jumping on its back to get it to move, and cutting a bull's throat while it was tied down and fully awake. What struck me the most was that one cow was displaying signs of stress and discomfort as she watched her companions got killed. I personally couldn't see it from the video, but it wouldn't be unreasonable to believe the report.

A short version of the Straits Times article here. Better viewing of the videos can be found here.
