That was a horrible video. I think we should boycott that particular label but I don't think it is necessary to hate Australians. I have a good friend who is Australian and she has nothing to do with the sheep industry. Thank goodness for organizations like PETA to identify the cruelty to animals and expose them to the general public. Hopefully, officials can step in and help them learn to groom the animals better and perhaps the boycotting can lead to a more efficient method to ship. I'm not sure what you can do about the treatment once they get to their destination for slaughter. I imagine the people who do that job are paying a good sum or there is some reason the Aussies aren't sending the sheep elsewhere (i.e., cost of shipment, etc.). But I will certainly boycott that label!

Are you being Serious? If it wasn't a Celebrity would you even pay attention or even make such a offensive remark. Not all sheep's are treated that way. Unfortunately not all animals are treated the best way we would like them to. So instead of making such an offensive remark why don't you do something about it. I am a vegetarian and a supporter of PETA, but i am also Australian and proud to be one. Have you looked at the other documentaries, how many are from different countries? Are you going to post the same question about this regarding the countries? And exactly what country are you from? because i am sure they don't do anything wrong now do they.

Hate is a strong word. What I do hate are humans being so cruel to animals. There is a humane way on how to kill an animal for food or material. What is happening in Australia is just animal cruelty. I do not understand why people get pleasure on abusing animals and treating them as if they do not feel pain. I do not get it, and it makes me sick to watch. Unfortunately it happens all over the world not just in Australia. The only way to change is by teaching, and to do what Pink is doing and exploiting this cruel act to try to have stricter regulations for animals. Just look at what KFC does to their chickens and it will make you think twice about eating that. Also that is here in good old America and it is just terrible. Man kind can be so nurturing and loving but it can be so disgusting and evil.... Knowledge is power!!

Don't single out Australians. Wherever mankind works with animals, it tends to care more about profit rates than the animals' pain.
You are probably an urban person with pets - so are most people who care about animal rights. We love cuddly cats, dogs, cute little hamsters; and we like to think that farmers and people who work with animals treat them the same way. But you have to understand it's a different mindset. They are not there to make friends with the animals. They are there to make a living. There are cheap ways of minimising animals' pain though so I think this should influence the law in RICH countries (like Australia) which could afford to do this. I do not expect poor countries to start caring about animal welfare until their citizens' welfare improves.

So, we have to hate all Australians because PETA says a few of them raise sheep and treat them badly?
Let's not let the Australians off the hook for hating Americans because of the way we treat our bovine brothers and sisters.
In fact, let's just hate everyone because most of them kill animals and then eat them.
Heck, I even hate myself for having had a cheese burger last week.

Turks aren't crazy about them, but only because they claim the Aussies are boisterous.
I'd like to see more people concerned with the ethical treatment of humans.

No...not really. I'm smart enough to know that not all Australians are sheep abusers.
