Implement & Enforce Laws To Support New Standards for Care of Animals On Sheep Farms

  • by: Sue Lee

In this petition, we are also encouraging Argentina to place a countrywide ban on mutilating and skinning live sheep.  We need to ask for some strict laws on how to care for the animals on the sheep farms throughout this country. 

PETA recently revealed a horrific video that showed alleged abuse at a sheep farm in the Ovis 21 network in Argentina.  Some of the wool farms in the country were in the report on suspected abuse of the sheep at the farms.  PETA stated that the recent video showed lamb’s ears being cut off, tails removed and tight rings placed around their scrotums, all while the animals were awake and in deep pain.  Additionally, animals were slammed on the hard floors, kicked, stepped on and hit with electric clippers.  Sheering of these poor animals often left them bleeding. 

Some companies have vowed not to deal with such brutal sheep farms but our efforts in this petition is to ensure better treatment of the animals on a countrywide level.  We need to take a stand to stop the inhumane treatment of sheep in the wool industry in Argentina.  Help to protect the gentle lambs and sheep from such abuse.  We want to encourage lawmakers in Argentina to ban skinning and mutilating of live sheep while enforcing laws that we support new standards for care of the animals on wool farms.  You can help in our effort by signing and sharing this petition.

President of Argentina, Cristina Fernández de Kirchner – In light of recent investigations, alleged findings, reports and videos presented by PETA, we are strongly encouraging you to implement some very strict laws that will first, ban the skinning of live sheep, mutilating live sheep, and require strict regulations and standards for the care and handling of sheep on sheep farms.  In addition to implementing these laws, ensure that you fully enforce them and put an end to the cruelty and abuse that is reported on lamb and sheep farm reported throughout your country. These animals are sweet, kind and gentle, not deserving of any type of abuse and inhumane treatment.  Be a voice for these animals and stop the abuse immediately.
