Appalling treatment of sheep during shearing

[Catherine]

Appalling cruelty.
The stupid thing is that the shearing takes longer because they are so cruel. If they worked quietly and gently with the sheep I am sure it would go better.
They put so much energy into abusing the sheep. When a man continues to throw a sheep around after he has finished shearing her, it is not about controlling the sheep so they can do the job. Clearly these workers hate sheep and enjoy violence. It would be interesting to film their home lives. How do they treat their wives and children.

Speaking of which, they compare the filming to a break-in. That only works if you are talking about breaking into the home of a child abuser and filming him as he beats his kids. Should the law protect someone's privacy then. Also there is no expectation of privacy in a work place like that.
How can that many workers not object? They are all guilty of animal abuse. The whole industry is rotten.

I realize that there has to be an investigation. Proper procedures must be followed, but there should be no question that this is abuse. The only question should be who gets charged with what. Some of the abusers are more cruel and deserve worse penalties.

Doesn't anyone notice the bad shape the sheep are in after shearing.
