Sadly the cruelty continues. 233,584 cattle left Townsville in the first 10 months of 2020 (Dept of Agriculture figures as at 31/10/20) including 146,594 shipped to Vietnam despite ongoing reports of breaches of ESCAS guidelines in that country including recent reports of "flooding" a cruel practice that involves forcing a hose down the throat into the stomach of cattle forcing them to consume large quantities of water in the hours preceding slaughter, to illegally increase meat weight.
