“The punching, kicking, and stomping that PETA documented were already part of a welfare program. We have been to over a hundred sheds on five continents, and the treatment is the same everywhere. When animals are treated as economic commodities, welfare loses out to economics every time.

A year on from our case, there is still not a single live feed coming from a single shed, because the industry would never dare show the world that shearing is anything but ‘just a haircut.’ Regardless of what PR moves the industry or government throws up, there is no such thing as humane wool. Anyone who cares about sheep doesn’t wear wool.”

Jason Baker, PETA Asia President
