Sheep Shearing: The Barbaric Reality

Sheep are gentle and sensitive individuals, who – like all animals – feel pain and fear. Sheep used for wool on Australian farms are subjected to both, as this disturbing footage highlights.

Representatives consistently deny the abuse that occurs within the shearing industry, making false claims and assuring the concerned public that they’re working within strict “systems”.

This video will shock you:

Sheep are gentle prey animals, who will rarely fight back when subjected to such abuses. It’s up to us to fight for them.

Please, don’t buy wool.
