A ship carrying 19,000 cattle that docked in Cape Town on February 18 has been blamed for causing an “unimaginable” stench across the South African city and prompted protesters to call for a ban on live animal exports. Members of the NSPCA who were called in to inspect the ship after residents complained about the smell described finding “abhorrent” scenes, with animals living in ”dams of their own excrement”.
