Submit your call to BAN Live Animal Export now!

THE MOMENT WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR HAS ARRIVED!

SUBMIT YOUR COMMENTS AND MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD FOR OUR ANIMALS!

Thank you for previously taking the time to write a letter to the Minister of Agriculture calling for a ban on the export of live animals by sea.

Despite your appeal, and the appeals of many others, on the 11th of July 2025, our Minister of Agriculture released the draft Regulations for the Export of Live Animals by Sea, a deeply disappointing attempt to legitimise and prolong a trade that is inherently cruel and inhumane.
We know, and the evidence shows, that no amount of regulation can make this practice humane. It is not a matter of better oversight; it is a matter of fundamental animal welfare. The very nature of long-distance live export by sea causes immense and unavoidable suffering.

We ask you to please take a few moments to submit your comments on the draft regulations, and to CALL FOR A TOTAL BAN. The easiest way to submit your comments is via our campaign on the DearSA platform.

Those who wish to submit more detailed comments, may do so by following the instructions linked here.

It would also be hugely impactful if you would share this with your family and friends, and urge them to submit comments too. We need to stand together to end this cruelty for these helpless beings.

DEADLINE FOR COMMENTS : 25 AUGUST 12PM

Your support at this critical time would mean so much, not only to us, but to the countless animals whose lives hang in the balance.
