Live export - Australian dairy cattle exported to Saudi Arabia

[LivestockExportTruth]

@newholand123 Hi. These are heifers (young cows) carrying their first calf, so they are not lactating during the voyage. They began producing milk when they calve - well after they arrived in Saudi Arabia. Thanks for your question.

we have also recceived thousands of australian holsteins in Torreon Mexico through ELDERS. tHE COWS are happy, milk well and produce above average .

The milk from these cows has higu fat and solids content, so we get a premium price for our product.

the only thing is that theese girls have to learn some spanish.

greetings from MEXICO

Good video. Great to see how the ships are layed out.

Cows seem to get better care than sheep on a ship- have you looked at the torturous journey of sheep to the middle east? This should be outlawed.

Hi dilemmix, all livestock are treated equally well onboard vessels, with room to move around and lie down, constant access to food and water, accredited stockmen on all voyages and an Australian vet on journeys to the Middle East to provide extra care. Over 99% of all animals arrive fit and healthy at their destination. Take a look at some of our other videos to see the care given onboard vessels and in overseas marketplaces or visit the liveexportcare website for more info.

Hi, well I'd really like to believe this, but of course conditions are good when you have organised for videos to be taken. What about the videos taken by PETA or Animals Australia that show the sheep on these ships are in terrible conditions?

I really hope that the animals are being treated well all the time and not only when they know that videos are taken.
