Although this animal should have been covered and protected from the element. This don't just happen in Malta. I've seen this happening in the US. When hunters put their catch in the back of a pick up. I've have seen deer and bears in the back of pickups. I didn't take any pictures. I guarantee if I go on Interstate 80 around hunting season, I will take few of these pictures a day. I guarantee if Mr Milliam goes to Washington State , Colorado, Utah,Nevada and Northern California around hunting season he will see this(corpse of animals)in the back of pickups on a regular basis. Corpse of Mustangs are routinely found in the Mohave Desert shot by hunters just for fun. Ranchers shooting endangered wolves.Stuff like this just don't happen in 3rd world countries or Malta.

Dear Philip Grech
I don't care where the driver was going...it is no way to transport dead animals. Uncovered, exposed to the blazing sun, in full public view. You don't need to know everything on everything, dear Philip Grech, to have a grasp of simple basic concepts.

Dear all of you who know everything on everything.
Has any of you wondered where he was going with the bull? Which government establishment is close-by in Marsa? At least the sex of the animal did not escape you

What can one say? I suppose ONLY IN MALTA would suffice!

OK, the next step is obvious. I await another article saying that the individual has been removed of his licence to process/transport food. This is a blatant breach of law. And you are right in exposing it. It very well goes against the concerted effort to raise Malta's image. Now we have a third world image.

As I listen to some profound Meditative Music that pacifies and stabilises my Chakras, this horrifying account you acknowledgingly and dutifully report for our benefit [ THANK YOU ] is regrettably not an isolated case.I recall witnessing grissly and terrifying situations not far from the Marsa Abattoir when very early in the morning I would visit my late father at his Marsa Offices, a number of years ago. Professional people ( including foreigners ), employees and individuals involved with the running of the Abattoir over the years have long convinced me that ONE IS WHAT ONE EATS and that many Maltese & local Residents are in for a healthy rough time if the gruesome details as to the sources of the meat we get being sold to us are made public.Hence there is an OMERTA` that it is in the interests of MANY not to be made public.The Public should boycott purchasing these products until they are not only given assurances but SURPRISE Visiting Times are to be permitted by the Competent Authorities for constant vigilance to be applied not only in the interests of Public Health but also to have the animals supervised!

Personally I think this story is a load of old bull!
