Pregnant cattle have been slaughtered in a cruel method

Pregnant cattle have been slaughtered overnight on the farm Witkoppies in the Welgegund – Naaupoort area. The farm is in the Kenneth Kaunda District, Tlokwe, Potchefstroom.
Once again, this is an evil act performed by perpetrators who have no consideration for animals and hacking cattle in that manner is cruel. Sadistic and barbaric actions of culprits who probably sold parts of the animal for witchcraft or some satanic endeavor.

It is believed that the flesh of unborn calves is known to bear medicinal value, and that is one of the reasons why pregnant cattle are slaughtered.

In November last year and out of sheer desperation the rural poor in Zululand, KwaZulu-Natal started killing their dying cattle in a bid to secure the meat. The drought had a devastating effect in this region, and the cows even though pregnant became so weak they could no longer walk. It would be justified under these circumstances to slaughter the cows as no intentional harm was deliberated.

The deliberate act of hacking the cattle on the Witkoppies farm was inhuman and cruel.
