Cancel the Cruel Sheep Race at Llandovery Sheep Festival on 23rd-24th September

As part of the Llandovery sheep festival in Wales, naturally timid and quiet sheep will be made to race against each other for the amusement of festival goers.

This is cruel and unnecessary humiliation, large noisy crowds will be cheering and shouting at them and this will be extremely frightening and stressful for them.

Through the pressure put on organisers by Care2 members signing petitions like this one, two other sheep races have recently been cancelled in the UK: in Wooditton and Moffat. So we know we can win!

Please sign my petition to tell the organisers of Llandovery Sheep Festival to cancel the cruel sheep race!
