Keri-li aged-16 Cows are sooo cute! we should do lots more to prevent them from dying, if others saw them dying, then they would probably be traumatised for the rest of their lives. It's horrible. 1/25/2006
anonamous I dont think that cows are very importaint, they are only bred for buissness. I think we should be worrying more about dogs, cats and peoples pets that are killed 1/25/2006
Lindy D Warren Truss will never reply to a letter. He considers himself to be a demi-God, as do all of his state Ministers.

Thank God for 60 Minutes, the champion Australians, who continue to bring the truth of this barbabic trade into the homes of millions of Australians every Sunday night, despite pressure from our Government to conceal it. Without the help of these heroic reporters, the plight of 7 million animals plus, per annum, would continue unnoticed.

Ban live export - send Warren Truss instead!		 9/22/2003
Nikki France I have recently sent correspondence to Mr John Howard regarding the Live export trade and have received a reply advising that the matter has been referred to the Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry, the Hon Warren Truss MP for his attention. I will endeavor to correspond to Mr Truss in an effort to participate in stopping what is a barbaric injustice toward innocent animals. I understand after reading this site that the RSPCA is attempting to negotiate with government agencies to replace the live export trade and would like to see that this matter is not laid to rest until something is done. Given that the mass media is able to control the level of exposure that the public receives in relation to such matters I can only hope that this issue doesn't escape public attention and continues to be in the forefront of the minds of all Australians. 8/12/2003
