Another death ship getting ready to sail. I guess the Aussies don't
realize that the world is watching Australian inhumanity. More Aussie
torture of animals. They are like nazis.

MELBOURNE, Australia, Sept. 12 (UPI) -- A row is raging in Australia
over the fate of more than 50,000 unwanted sheep stranded in grueling
conditions aboard a ship in the Middle East.

An animal welfare group told the BBC the sheep should be put down,
claiming thousands have already died.

The sheep arrived in Saudi Arabia five weeks ago but were rejected
because the kingdom claimed 6 percent were diseased.

That's 1 percent more than the Saudi Government agreed to allow.

Hugh Wirth, Australian president of the Royal Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, said 3,500 of the sheep have died
amid temperatures of 113-122 degrees Fahrenheit.

"It's a fairly hefty option to kill 57,000 sheep, but the fact of life
is, what alternative have we got?" Worth said in an interview with ABC
radio.

But the chief executive of Australia's Livestock Export Corporation,
Kevin Sheill, insisted the sheep were not in danger.

Negotiations were underway with another Middle East country to accept
the woolly cargo, Sheill said.
