Ship with 19,000 cows on board at anchor - Cape Town complains of disgusting smell. Thousands of cows are apparently vegetating in terrible conditions on a freighter off Cape Town.
In parts of the metropolis, the stench is almost unbearable. According to research by the South African animal protection organization NSPCA, the 19,00 cattle on the live export ship "Al Kuwait" are in a pitiful condition. In a statement, the organization spoke of a “Kuwaiti death ship.”
