overturned, their thick coats became waterlogged as the water
crashed in from all sides. As they slowly drowned, they
screamed for help, their legs dangling from their now-toppled
enclosures. <STRONG>This was the fate that recently befell
nearly 15,000 sheep,</STRONG> en route from Romania to Saudia
Arabia. Their original end destination: the slaughterhouse.
</P>
<P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 2em">While not all of the sheep
drowned, the story doesn't get happier. Rescue crews managed
to "save" 32 of the animals, or approximately 0.002% of the
herd — <STRONG>only to send them straight to slaughter
anyway.</STRONG> Other countries and regions are banning these
types of exports due to the extreme inhumanity of it all.
Australia briefly banned live animal exports to the Middle
East after a video that showed sheep dying agonizing deaths
due to extreme heat aboard ships. It's time for the European
Union to step up to the plate. <STRONG>There is only one way
to ensure no more animals meet such grim, terror-filled
deaths. <A
