In 2016, 224,255 cattle were exported from the Port of Townsville making Townsville the second largest live cattle export port in Australia and the Port is planning to hit the 250,000 mark in 2017. The fifth live export ship for this year, the Nine Eagle is now at Berth 3 waiting to load cattle for the cruel live export trade. You can follow TALE - Townsville Against Live Export on facebook. Please continue to share this petition with you friends. We are also trying to fundraise to get signage on local buses to raise public awareness of this cruel trade and increase pressure on the government to END LIVE EXPORT.
