The Livestock Welfare Coordinating Committee (LWCC), managed by the South African Meat Industry Company, has the power to deal with production and game animal issues in farming.
[1] According to Tatjana von Bormann, coordinator of the World Wide Fund for Nature/Conservation International GreenChoice Project, "Beef in South Africa is mostly produced in feedlots or factory farms".
[6] De-beaking, de-toeing, tail-docking, tooth pulling, castration, and dehorning of livestock without anaesthetic are illegal,[6] as is confinement in gestation crates and battery cages.
Animal activist organizations in South Africa include: These cats are often desperate for attention and they believe that it is their duty to do everything that they can to give them a second chance.
By focusing on the root of the problem, lack of sterilization, they believe that they can significantly reduce the number of homeless animals, overcrowded shelters and the unnecessary suffering of victims of irresponsible pet guardians.
