- Ship with 19,000 Cattle Causes Stink in South Africa's Cape Town | Vantage with Palki Sharma
A ship carrying 19,000 cattle from Brazil to Iraq caused a stink in the South African city of Cape Town. The smell from the ship blanketed Cape Town. The cattle were stewing in more than two weeks worth of faeces and ammonia. The ordeal sheds a light on the global Livestock transport industry. Is there no way to transport animals without subjecting them to cruelty? Palki Sharma reports.

As a South African, I'm learning more about my country through conversations here than from the local news.
thats sounds like a you problem darling because this channel got their info from your local news
Becareful sometimes they pour Salt

True
im a student at the university of cape town which is located over 10 kilometers away from the docks. the entire upper and middle campus was disgusted at the strong and foul smell which polluted our lecture theatres. the entire city centre smelled like the inside of a septic tank. How dare they dock such a disgusting showcase of human cruelty in our city.
Well, now you know why we in Canada call you part of the BRICS Pricks. South africa and Brazil are so busy criticizing Israel that it conveniently ignores the crap going on within its own borders.
Maybe start a legal petition to stop such incident instead of complaining on the results. Harbour earns from the docking. The animals are suffering.
u want to fight against the System by using a petition?? It is like throwing the tomatoes against the guns.
The only way to change the System is using the same tools - or - to pray the world to be changed, because we are in the Dragon´s year 2024 and it will be hard in the sphere of the responsibility.
F*ckers will be f*cked.
all the world is working under the money, business, laudering, racketeering. F*ckers will be f*cked hardly.
More ideas cannot be written here. @@cecilyadams4086
Leave our country colonizer
Your statement smells like "not in my back yard" 😂😂
I love FirstPost and Palki; nowhere else can you find such a variety of news like FirstPost.
I understand how people were affected, BUT gosh those animals... i feel so bad that they were subjected to living in those conditions💔😔.
Imagine working on one of those 🤮
Thanks Palki, for covering something, that everyone tends to ignore. Animal cruelty is an issue that requires immediate action.
Rss bjp cruelty to humans
This livestock transport business needs to be regulated and animal welfare organizations need to certify these.
It needs to be shut down!
@@jennarose3088Shutting it down may be difficult as the Global Elites have decided that European farmers must leave animal farming to save the climate. Ironically, they still need animal products shipped from elsewhere at even more CO2 footprint.
@@jennarose3088 Ah! Europeans did worse to Black people on regular basis. Transatlantic slave trade on Westerly course.
Man I felt that stench 2 days back when I went through town. Did a 10 minute drive through, now imagining how it was for everyone that was in the city all day
Thank you for educating us about this. Very sad.
What a discussion. I had no idea about the global livestock export industry! We certainly need to be concerned! That was a good coverage!💯
There are videos on TH-cam about the very same boat and other similar boats. Animal cruelty is real…
Cheaper taxes to transport live than to transport frozen meat, which is the reason for this cruelty.
anyway, a lot of meat is made in the world. In the past, vast amount of milk and vast amount of cereal was damaged, because of avoiding the price to be decreased...
2/3 of all the animals in the world are pigs, cows, bulls, sheeps and goats.
200 years ago.... humans were chained and transported like this or even worse ways. Commerce creates a transaction, conscious has to refine and fine tune that.
If this smells so bad on the outside environment... can you imagine how bad it is on the ship itself..
Those crews on that ship were having fun.
Poor ANIMALS ❤❤❤
yes Europeans did the same thing but with Humans.
Exactly.
And so did the middle east ? What's you're point ?
And all over and got stinking rich from doing it. How shameful!! And now all affected must just forget and move on. We will never forget!!
And to keep with being prejudice….. so do Africans! Colour doesn’t separate the cruelty since we all know what you are trying to get at
Exactly so who cares about some stupid cows thats just going to end up being killed when they get there right?
Im working in Capetown Waterfront the smell is chasing away customers its real bad really
I wonder how the crew was dealing with the smell.
I am sorry... I was on the Waterfront in Cape Town not far from the ship 3 days ago. There was NO SMELL. The area was filled with thousands of tourists and locals.
All the +40 Cricket World Cup teams were parading happily.
Enjoying the Cape Town sunshine.
Mad unnecessary news about SA from all over the world... us South Africans always hearing tales that aren't as dramatic as the rest of the world delivers it to be...
Heavy propaganda about SA all over socials since the Israeli vs SA court battle... I call bullshit 😅
@@nomtha9695 bad smell is driving past Beef Masters cow farms... that is bad, but s whiff of a few cows one or two dead = drama is kind of far fetched... no one says anything about India even though it's so all over lol...
I was this old when I learnt that animals are being shipped across continents. It’s disgusting and inhumane. How can human beings stopp so low? It’s no different to slave trade practices. I am even shocked that Australia ships animals to the Middle East.
this is an excellent piece of news and coverage. an eye opener. thank you Palki and Firstpost
This is THE only reason I gave up eating meat. Because I know the conditions and abuse animals suffer from. Nothing to do with religion or the planet etc. It's simply how the animals are treated 😢
This is way the want humans not eat meat but insect instead.. Go figure out
Nah just eat meat bro/sis
@@paulsilas6037 ew, yuck, phatoooeh 🤮🤢
I just had to adopt a strictly carnivore diet to control my diabetes, and it works well. As a former vegan, I can say that I suffered several strokes and blood glucose remained high on a vegan lifestyle.
@@Noyota2 I don't know much about Veganism but I find people that follow that to be unhealthy. Vegetarianism is a different story and is proven as people in India have been living on that diet for centuries and the 2 oldest known civilizations followed it.
Money is the root of evil.
For the love of money is the root cause of all evil. Money itself is not evil. It can be used for the good of the world.
No, LOVING money is the root of evil. Putting money before God leads to sin
@@douglasbullet6456Amen
Had only spent 8 days on board when the Al Kuwait arrived in Cape Town - not 2.5 weeks. It departed Rio Grande on 10 February. What would it have looked and smelt like after two and a half weeks?
Imagine Europeans did this to African prisoners of war
You mean slaves during the Transatlantic slave trade a very dark time in history 😢
The arabs did it too and much worse, like castration
Not just Africans....
China? Russia?
You’re a wicked and evil person to call Africans slaves prisoners of war. Some were children kidnapped and raped on the journey.
DA controller of Cape Town
Blame them
Where is PETA
People For Eating Tasty Animals
@@manikyumyou nailed it....!! Thats just a PR team, pretending to carry morality but just creating a mere distraction; better say seeking attention of high society to generate funds... its a Fake institution...😬
its not active. It will be active only during Hindu festivals. The inconvenience is regretted
PETA does not have a bit foot print is South Africa, I am not even sure if they have an office here. I have heared about Green Peace advocating for the animals here but nothing about PETA. I can guarantee you the SPCA did nothing either, they just wrote a cleverly worded statement to appease the people crying out. South Africans will complain but that is about it, they will not actively do something to change the situation, they are waiting for someone else to do it.
Last day to Register to vote. Ramaposa has announced that the voting staions will be open on the 29th of May. We need everyone if we want ANC to fall. Please Foward to Friends And family. God Bless 🙌
Y'all better vote for the DA
@Just_Gifted yes definitely.
@@Just_Giftedwe don't support or vote for those who supports the zionest. Fuck the DA. ANC sucks agree but then we should find another alternative than the weak ass DA
@@Just_Giftedi would rather swim in a pool of broken glass than vote DA.
It's a good thing the DA is on a historic decline. The PA will deal an even bigger blow.
White people have a saviour complex.
For instance most white South Africans think Andre De Ryter is the best Eskom CEO because he is white.
Corruption was at it's highest under him together with load shedding. Just as useless as any black deployed cadre of the ANC.
@@Just_Gifted😂😂😂😂
Live stock on board a ship should be banned...This is so cruel
And also any livestock rasied for meat shpuld be banned, escpeically cows amd cattle.
One animal shelter i visited had rescued a cow and pig, and takes care of many other animals. But literally 20 meters away, is a restaurant, selling beef and pork. I found that incredibly contradictory as a human being. They are serving the meat of the same animals they are giving shelter to.
I love the way you report and educate through your channel -fist post
I just don’t know how you missed to report on the passing on of the Namibia lm president in your news .
We in Namibia loves listening to you a lot .
Its indeed sad to see animals being subjected to such cruelty. Human being are turning into animals
Not only the ship.The people that are sleeping everywhere in the city and dropping human waste(Fieces) everywhere also make the City smell and disgusting.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣☠☠☠☠
It was horrible, HORRIBLE 😢😢😢
People should realise vegetarian food is healthy and give up non vegetarian food
Very good report Palki Sharma.
But still...I don't think the stink is as much as it usually stinks in any Indian city.
@@yevanyevan7238 when was the last time you visited India? After the Prime Minister's Swachh Bharat Abhiyan ( clean India mission) in the last one decade India has changed a lot... A cleaner and beautiful India! ❤️
Why do authorities allow these horrible conditions?
Money, stupid.
Because it is South Africa, all areas of government is corrupt right down to the grass roots and nothing works here anymore. I can tell you now that the SPCA did nothing but issue a report and I am sure even that was a painful thing to do for the person who was nominated to do it.
We live here, we frequently visit the Foreshore, Waterfront and Green Point, but we had none of that smell. We were raised on farms and know animal smells, but had experienced none of that. Al Kuwait has sailed, meanwhile, so there's really no stench in Cape Town.
The stench is not really the issue, but the origin and legality of such transports.
That how the shipped people before, and its took a lot longer to get to the destination... I am glad cows are helping people become more human.
Imagine Farmers smell this everyday to feed animals so that you have food everyday.
yes but usually there arent 19 thousand cattle stuffed on a ship all shitting (and peeing) in metal cages with no sanitation for weeks that pull up to our city from another country to restock food supplies. its true farms can stink but this is different. this is animal cruelty.
Go Vegetarian!😀
@@truthseeking6611🤮🤮🤮🤮neverrrrrrr
On that scale? Not with 19000 all cramped like sardines in a can with the potential of contact borne diseases developing. Not sure your statement should even be published. I’ve been to farms and yes there is a bearable smell that forms but not at that stench
Ive never been in a barn with 19000 head of cattle. Just saying and ive worked on plenty of ranches. 19k on a ship is crazy. And then on top of that i can only imagine how many have died thanks to the seas and limited room. I cant even imagine what that would smell like.
South Africa going to file a new case against all other national in ICC regarding this smell...
The hypocrites don't have the balls to do that.
😂😅
You are a mad dog 🐕
If that is the value you place on human life, you need to seriously look into yourself and find what's missing.
@@subject_7 why are animals less important...that's the issue pal
My favourite news channel
Humans will pay for this
Words escape me, but my feelings of such humans that would do this, doesn’t!!
Non-vegetarians are directly/indirectly involved in this cruelty.
I'm pretty sure you meant vegetarians, as cows don't eat meat. It is the cattles fault not non vegetarians. In fact non vegetarians will help with that ship full of beef.
You do realize we have canine teeth for a purpose right?... 😅
@@waterlife.1905 man! you really don't know how the world works. I would suggest you to read about supply demand and cause effect.
@@ekagelashvily5192 our tooth anatomy is dominanted by molars (grinding) and incisors (cutting).
We have only 1 pair of canine on both our upper and lower jaw . Please research on tooth structure of carnivores and herbivores and you ll get the answer.
@@ekagelashvily5192 please research the tooth anatomy of herbivores and carnivores, you will get the answers
I am sure the animals hate the stink more than the people.
What happens to the slurry from the ship? Do they dump it the ocean or wait until they anchor?
Imagine all the germs having a field day in that ship.. 😮
Indian obsessions with cattle and cattle products.but conditions for animal safety is paramount.
Poor animals and their animals are no human rights
Those practising Jainism donates money termed as ‘jiv Daya’ to free animals, and some sects are into horrifying cruelty towards animals before slaughtering… what a divide thinking in this world towards animals
They could buy from India, they are the 2nd largest exporters of cows
@@moheganforfreedom4265are you high on pork ?
Someone needs to take SA to court over this!!!
WtF did we do?
Lol its not even our ship 😂
Haybo! Where do we enter here? 😦😂
How else are you supposed to transport thousands of live animals? In an Airbus A380 perhaps?
Wuzmu@ Sorry to inform you it is not SA.Will you take any feul station to court for flat tire or your damage feul tank
Same way the European treated Slaves long ago.😮😮😮
I can imagine the tourists's vessel docked next to the animal tour vessel😂
Wickedness and evil people abusing animals .
Cold storage + slaughtered animal meat + loadshedding = a NO GO OPTION IN S.A. ! DAILY I HAVE A WET KITCHEN FLOOR FROM FRIDGE AND FREEZER DEFROSTING - THAT'S THE LIVING CONDITIONS IN S.A. now !!
Have you been to new dehli in india...? hypocrites
great point
pure facts
but this joke of a news channel or propaganda network neer shows that
Thats so sad 😞
👍👍👍
Cruelty to animals
Count me in when first post newsletters start ❤
Relax, we managed to handle the smell in Cape town. It was just one day out of 365 that our city smelt like the daily smell of Delhi and Mumbai
Immigrant?
Nonsense. I’ve stayed in both cities. And by the way I’ve also worked on a live cattle carrier.
The animal cruely is horrid
Some of those cattle were dead and rotting
Thanks for highlighting a most important but totally ignored subject
Because of WHO it was carrying, not what - that's the root of the problem - humans thinking of other animals as commodities or cargo.
They should be heavily penalized!! Unspeakable!! 😢
🐄🚢 Who knew a ship with 19,000 cattle could cause such a stink in Cape Town, South Africa? This story from Vantage with Palki Sharma sheds light on unexpected challenges in shipping and livestock transportation. #UnforeseenConsequences 🌊
Sounds absolutely inhumane.
Such cruelty, this should be banned....
Why so much of cruelty with animlas😢
It's not the cape town stinking but the human minds are stinking
I’m eating Lamp right now, and it freaking SLAPS 😤😤😤
Oh and I also experienced the horrible smell that day, I thought there was something wrong with the sewage in the building I was in.
Imagine working on the ship and having to travel with the stench 🤧
💔
Very sad, 😢😢😢
I’m in Cape Town and smelt nothing, you guys love to exaggerate.
😂 Guys…. We are in the news 🫣 wow
🤣
SO CRUEL!!
Mmmmm
😢
WHY did that ship have to dock in Cape Town for that long? Is still docked there? There's more to that ship's being docked there than just transporting 🐄🐄 What happened to it after it was discovered?
The ship is a Kuwaiti ship docked in Cape Town temporarily and heading for Saudi Arabia. They stopped here to get food and supplies. Not a Capetonian ship!! Get your facts straight.
These cows should come to India
It smells like ship in capetown
Shocking that this ship was allowed anywhere near the city. The ship itself is disgraceful. Inhumane. Nothing surprising anymore in this world.
Sad
Many will raise concern over this and will have lamb and beef for dinner. How disgusting that is?!! Humans.
Our ancestors were done the same during slave trade....human beings
I could smell it in wynberg. That’s how bad it was
My poor heart 💔
They care about animal than people
Dreadful conditions for the suffering animals!!!!
Imagine the crew 😂
These cows are on their way to slaughter so that means that people were going to eat them? My God they had been sitting like that for over 2 weeks? I live in a very small town in Michigan in the United States and just a farm with just a few cattle that they have on it is disgusting in the summertime.
I can't imagine a ship with 19,000 cattle 😮😮😮😮
How do you know it wasn't just the settlers not bathing?
The crew must be angry af 😂
Not to mention what's been thrown out to the sea. Our marine life will also die.
Better conditions for animals.
Why are they emphasizing those animals being turned to food? Come on, I am eating!
I can't wait until people meet their maker, animals have bigger hearts and more incredible souls than any human you will ever meet.
I cannot wait until people know this 😢
Baboons steal young animals and eat them alive like a hamburger, staring with the back muscles. They've even learned to raise domesticated dogs (which they steal as puppies) as weapons.
Orcas will sometimes play tennis with living seals purely for amusement and not eat it, and other creative things for amusement.
Elephants will crush smaller animals, like tortoises, purely for amusement.
Chimpanzees will often go to war...sometimes just for some meat. With gorilla populations recovering, we're seeing it's part of their nature to wage war as well.
Crows do all sorts of cruel stuff for amusement.
Notice all these animals are intelligent.
That's animal cruelty😢
religion of peace
😂😂😂😂😂 Really
Its really stinking 😭😭
I hope PETA has no answers for this.
