2,000,000,000 animals including pigs, cows, sheep, chickens and fishes are transported around the world on ships and even airplanes each year.

Up to 120,000 sheep or 25,000 cows are held captive on a single ship
which can travel for up to five weeks by sea. Sometimes this can be
much longer if the journeys have been delayed, and it is not
uncommon to see vessels held up for months.
During heatwaves, the temperatures and humidity become so unbearable
that thousands of animals can die on board just one ship. Mothers
are forced to give birth in cramped squalid conditions and their
babies are often trampled to death.
In 2018, for the first time in history cameras captured what life is
like on a live sheep vessel traveling from Australia, and exposed
the animal agriculture industry for inflicting extreme unimaginable
suffering upon sentient beings who just want to live.
