Anyone who has seen a sheep being mulesd knows that it is cruel and unnecessary. I am Australian, and I can tell you - sheep farmers do NOT take care of their animals. Hooray Pink!

Posted by: James | December 19, 2006 05:49 PM

I think its great that international voices like Pink want to stand up for the rights of animals.

Posted by: Anonymous | December 19, 2006 05:58 PM

Pink, I'm not really into any music lately, just to old and busy to bother but I just wanted to say that I'm starting to become one of your best fans. You are amazing for putting yourself out there like you are and with the amount of influence you have over the youth of today, even if other stars don't follow your lead hopefully some of the youngster will.

Thanks for giving the animals a voice.

Posted by: Sonia | December 19, 2006 09:38 PM

As an Australian I can tell you that Americans will give up their guns before Aussie farmers will give up their Merinos. That said, there must be a kinder way of helping the Merino avoid fly strike.

P.S. I'm a big PINK fan, a fantastic artist.

Posted by: Peter | December 20, 2006 05:35 AM

Pink's done a GREAT job exposing the cruel and barbaric practices behind the wool industry.

The video footage is more proof that things need to change.

Keep up the GREAT work!!!

Posted by: Paul | December 20, 2006 05:55 AM

Goodjob girl! I hope people will finally see what those animals go thru on a dialy base :(

Don't let anyone take you down and keep ur head up.. I know many people fully support you, like me. Keep up the good work!

Posted by: Agnita | December 20, 2006 06:12 AM

I can't believe that Australia still hasn't banned this barbaric torture. Bravo to Pink for raising awareness on an issue most people will never hear about otherwise.

Posted by: Lav | December 20, 2006 09:16 AM

well, if anyone actually had a clue they would realize that it is time to get your head out of the sand and wake up. ripping flesh off without sterile procedures and NO anesthetic is barbaric. HELLO. it is time to take control and tell the fashion houses to grow a conscience!!

I live in Australia and every day I see these trucks driving these poor sheep to the ports/markets. It makes me sick seeing them sat at petrol stations while the driver is having his lunch (not that I'm saying he shouldn't stop for lunch), while they sit in 40 degree heat, piled on top of each other, many with their heads and limps sticking out the truck as they are squashed in so tight. Some have been on the truck for up to 3 days like this. I myself have sheep that have been born on these trucks and have simply been left on the side of the highway as it is illegal to transport pregnant ewes. Everyone of my sheep have different personalities, they also have feelings and know fear and pain. Nothing should be subjected to parts of their bodies being ripped off, how would you like it. You are right that fly strike is an awful thing to get but as Jack says this is due to the way these poor animals have been bred just so you can get more wool. It's greed that motivates this. Merino's shouldn't be in Australia, the climate is too hot and there are too many flies, sorry to the farmers that chose this as a way to make a living but nothing can justify cruelty. The other things is that a lot of these sheep don't even get fly strike on the arses, it can happen anywhere the animal has thick moist wool, as seen in the video, those maggots where on that area so what is the solution, just skin them all.

Posted by: Sonia | December 20, 2006 08:17 PM

I just want to mention that the first time I ever witnessed a live sheep slaughter was at a religious Islamic event, eidil adha, where they honor a prophetic tradition mentioned in the Holy Qur'an. I was in my early teens and my mother paid a sheep to be slaughtered under our family name. Needless to say I never ate the meat because I was just horrified by the whole slaughtering process and experience. One minute I was thinking "Aww.. what cute sheep!" and the next minute I saw it convulsing on the floor bleeding from a huge gash in it's neck. Slaughter by means of a huge gash across an animal's main blood vessel is considered the most humane by Muslims since we cannot have them stunned, unconcious or dead before slaughter. That meat would be considered carcass and that would be haram for consumption.

Posted by: lin | December 20, 2006 09:42 PM

BAN ANY ABUSIVE ANIMAL ACTIVITY. IT IS NO DIFFERENT TO SLAVE LABOUR, SEX SLAVES AND ANY ABUSE WHICH BENEFITS ONE PARTY AND NEGLECTS OR DESTROYS THE OTHER. FARMING IS ON THE DECLINE BECAUSE OF THE CHANGE OF ENVIRONMENT... PACK UP... REINVENT YOURSELFS..BUT STOP MAKING EXCUSES... AGAIN IT IS GREEDY PROFIT MAKING SCHEMES THAT HAVE CREATED THIS SITUATION : EXTRA FOLDS ON THE ANIMAL TO PRODUCE MORE WOOL... GREED, GREEDY AND GREEDIER... TELL THE FARMERS TO GET ANOTHER OCCUPATION..IT IS A DYING INDUSTRY.. WHY MAKE THEM SUFFER.

Posted by: JIM | December 21, 2006 01:20 AM

I am a young Australian and am outraged over the cruelty that is going on. Pink, Australia loves you! I really hope people look into the facts themselves.

Posted by: Amy D | December 21, 2006 01:54 AM

They already have sheep down here without wool or folds around there bums. There's no need for mulesing!

Posted by: Chris | December 21, 2006 08:30 AM

people spend millions for nonsense and rubbish. human brains and hearts and above all australian and other farmers should finally update their mind to understand that there a r e possibilities to avoid animal suffering, for example by anestesy but they just want a maximum of profit from the suffering creatures, so they are ruthless enough to export these poor defenseless animals also to the near east, where they are slaughtered in the most horrible way without any humain feelings left for them! shame on you, greedy habitants of this planet! mother earth shall give you her answer!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and right on pink; she understands a lot - above all about what's a feeling heart!

Posted by: john grant | December 22, 2006 09:27 AM

These people who do such inhumane thing to animals do not deserve to live themselves. It is wrong to make these sheep suffer complete animal cruelty. It is fabolous to see celebrities such as Pink standing up for what they believe in.
This is wrong and everyone knows it.

Posted by: Laura | December 22, 2006 09:41 AM

People keep talking about presenting a balanced view.

The fact that you are able to post your own opinion on a website means that your voice can be heard, too...and healthy debate on a topical issue can occur.

Why should Pink be denied the opportunity to voice her opinion(?) - hell, we get force fed drivel from our so-called leaders everyday, and have to tolerate biased, base-grade journalism (as well).

The images speak for themselves and if some farmers are not continuing the practice, then there must be viable alternatives around. Why can't we use our 'noggins', after all these centuries, to come up with something better?

I, for one, am grateful that we have people in the public arena who get us thinking about and discussing something more than what clothes they are wearing and who they are dating.

Goood on you, Pink! You have supporters in Oz, who admire you for your enormous artistic talent, emotional intelligence and political awareness.

Posted by: Melanie | December 23, 2006 12:49 AM

Why do australians tolerate the abuse of their industry? Go out and protest. These people should be prosecuted for the lies and damage they have caused.

Merry christmas.

Posted by: Matthew Scanlan | December 24, 2006 12:24 PM

Thank you, Pink! Let's all call on the cosmetics companies and others who use lanolin. Tell them to see the video.There are alternatives to lanolin too.

Posted by: thuja | December 27, 2006 01:06 AM

Check your lipbalm and also your vitamin D for lanolin.

Posted by: thuja | December 27, 2006 01:27 AM

i cried when i saw them cut sheep's legs and when they opened sheep's skin. Im too shocked, in China, it's worst but that even stills cruel.

I am so happy this video was made so people can be aware of the injustices and cruelty animals are being put through. To have a celebrity like Pink supporting the video and getting the message out is also amazing.

Posted by: jessika | December 27, 2006 03:05 PM

This is amazing. We love you :)

Posted by: Emma Brunkalla | December 27, 2006 03:05 PM

Pink. She's always been awesome. She's always stood up for what she believed in and made music about it. She's always been my hero because she's always stuck up for what she believes, and this should be no different. I love Pink for what she is and what she stands up for. Thank you Pink for sticking up for these animals. Because if no one listens to us, they'll listen to you. You're our voice.

Posted by: Apollonia M. | December 27, 2006 03:06 PM

I havent seen the graphic video [[i have a weak stomach]] but ive heard you speak on behalf of animals before and i would just like to thank you for all of the great things you are doing to help out animals that dont have a voice. I and many other people appreciate everything you do. thank you and have a happy new years!

My family cannot thank you enough for using your fame to send such a powerful message across! Most people think that the animals are just shaved and now, the truth is told! You rock, keep up the great work! And, thanks again for standing up for what you believe in!!!

Posted by: Renee | December 27, 2006 03:09 PM

I am so glad more celebrities are speaking up, especially a strong soul like Pink. She is doing a great thing and this industry will pay. Thank God for vegetarians and caring people.

I saw this video a couple days ago on peta2 and have since then told almost everyone i run into im boycotting wool and I also tell them what is going on with the poor sheep :( im so happy pink brought attention to this!

Posted by: shana | December 27, 2006 03:09 PM

Hey Pink,
You making this video is amazing. I want to thank you for being brave enough to take a stand and expose the horrible things some people are willing to do to make profits. Once again thank you for being amazing Pink.

Posted by: Tyler McKean | December 27, 2006 03:09 PM

I think what your doing is amazing. More people need to be informed on what is happening, and you are definately doing it. Kudos!

Posted by: Lauren | December 27, 2006 03:09 PM

I just wanted to thank Pink on behalf of animals worldwide. You are doing an amazing thing speaking up, as alot of people do not have the courage too. Never back down, we all support you and the people who don't support you are obviously the people that need an awakening. You are a hero for animals and we love you!

Posted by: Jency B | December 27, 2006 03:09 PM

Dear Pink,

You did a great job exposing the truth. Thank you for being an amazing lady and a rolemodel to many.

Thank you Pink.

Posted by: Amy | December 27, 2006 03:11 PM

This message goes out in particular to those people who can watch this and not be bothered. everyone in the world poor or wealthy should be well aware of the methods ranchers and farmers use to bring your dinner to the slaughterhouse.

"if you watch your food being slaughtered, you shouldnt be able to eat it"

Posted by: Allie | December 27, 2006 03:11 PM

Haveing people like Pink stand up for those who can't really gives me, as well as my friends, the insperatiion that we need to keep speaking out for animal rights.

Posted by: Estephanita Montoya | December 27, 2006 03:12 PM

omg that was sick those pepole r horriable but dont worry i dont wear any thing to do with animals lol but yeah i think this video will really make people think love yeah peta u change lots of peps

Posted by: jessica | December 27, 2006 03:12 PM

i think its great that Pink made this video.
im a vegetarian, and this really opened my eyes to horrifying things i didn't know about the wool industry.

Posted by: sam | December 27, 2006 03:13 PM

that was one of the saddest things that i have seen. I just want to thank Pink for taking a stand on something that touches everyone and I will be buying the alternatives until Australia gets it together and stops the slaughterers!

Posted by: kayla | December 27, 2006 03:13 PM

Keep up the good work Pink. They're just afraid that now they can't just do whatever the hell they want to. I know you're tough and won't back down at all. We're behind you all the way girl!

Posted by: Tyler Archane | December 27, 2006 03:13 PM

Pink, your not only and inspering artist but an animal actavist and this is why i dont eat meat or wear any types of fur!THANK YOU for using you voice for the animals that can't!

Posted by: Julie | December 27, 2006 03:14 PM

I think your pretty amazing for doing this! Its disgusting how people can treat animals and we need more peopl liike you to stand up for them since they dont have a voice of their own. Thank-you so much for doing this.

<3

Posted by: Hannah | December 27, 2006 03:15 PM

I really think that this video that Pink has made is something really kind of her to do. Showing us how much sheep have to endure so we can use their wool isn't humane. Animals do feel things, and cutting conscious animals is like killing a human who is still pretty much alive. It's not fair that animals have to suffer these kinds of things just for our use. Thank you so much Pink for raising a voice for the sheep! It's time for us to get out there and help the poor sheep.

Posted by: Jennifer | December 27, 2006 03:15 PM

Thankx peta ... we clear off that wool will be a mark of suffering for animal ... we don't have to forget this !!!

Thank you Pink!

I hope more people will begin to speak up for the sheep.

Posted by: josie | December 27, 2006 03:21 PM

Thank you so much Pink, most celebrities don't care about what happens to the animals, as long as they look "hott" in the fabrics of death. With your video "Stupid Girls" and you doing the video for this, i have gained a huge amount of respect for you, which to be honest i hardly respect any celebrities. Thanks again!

Pink is amazing! you can tell she is one of the few celebritites that has a huge heart! and courage to tell the world about this disgusting practice.
Those Aussie farmers disgust me, torturing those harmless sheep lke that, how can they call themselves men when they beat up and cut little animals all day . they are nothing but SICK DEPRAVED cowards! same the american versions who abuse cattle in rodeos etc...

Posted by: Rey | December 27, 2006 03:24 PM

it's wrong and unneccesary, no animal should undergo that treatment, especially not for fashion, there are fakes nowadays that are so much kinder, and often cheaper, if you buy this, your paying for slaughtrer, and for people to continue treating animals like that, surely if you have one ounce of a conscience, you won't buy it in future. put them out of business, then they cannot keep treating the sheep like this.

Posted by: Beverlyyy | December 27, 2006 03:24 PM

Oh haha and also, My friends at school always ask me after i yell at them for their leather coats if it's okay to wear wool, my response? "yah i guess that's fine, i mean they don't need to kill the animals to shave off their wool" which is why i'm so happy this video was made because i would have never learned this anywhere else, thanks again!

Posted by: AMANDA | December 27, 2006 03:29 PM

I think it's so great that people, like Pink, that have a large impact on people are willing to stand up or things they believe in. Even if they know it'll be looked down upon by some people, they still do it. Because they're more worried about what's right than what fickle fan decides to stop buying albums because they don't think she has to the right to tell a truth like that. Thanks so much for getting this out there. -Lenora

Posted by: ashley ort | December 27, 2006 03:34 PM

I think that it is great that celebrities, such as Pink, have used their starpower to shed light on the cruelty to animals that goes on WORLDWIDE!

While many singers, actors, and models are constantly in the news about their love lives, their drug problems, and their latest purse trend.. it is wonderful to see celebrities like Pink, Trent Reznor, and Alec Baldwin getting recognition for doing something great!

Keep up the great work!! Your influence can help save many animals all over the world! :)

Thanks Pink!
Thanks PETA!!

Thanks p!nk!!! I always thought you rocked, this is just another way to prove it. It's horrible what they do to them, not to mention wicked gross. so thanks p!nk for standing up for sheep. :)

Thank you for giving animals a voice & bringing this important issue to everyone's attention.

Its great to see such hugh name in the world to help spread the word on cruel acts to animals

Posted by: ian wheeler | December 27, 2006 04:15 PM

i think its great that someone that people actually listen to is taking a stand for the animals, keep up the good work, i have a feeling this is going to make an impact to pink fans all around the world.im kind of exited to see the reactions

Posted by: jennifer | December 27, 2006 04:16 PM

I think what Pink is doing is amazing usally stars like pink only care about which fur coat they r gonna wear each day or what kinda of animal they are gonna have for dinner

Posted by: Cori | December 27, 2006 04:16 PM

No one likes being just used. I'm happy when ever a product or celebrity lends their voice to letting people know that were using and abusing animals...I saw method fabric softeners sheets the other day and they are cool cuz they let people know that most fabric softeners are made from tallow or animal fat!!

Posted by: domenic C | December 27, 2006 04:19 PM

yeaaahh!!! PINK!! wooo!!
it's really great how she spoke up for the sheep. We need more celebs. like her. yep yep. We DO!!

--Sierrahh!!

Posted by: Sierrah | December 27, 2006 04:29 PM

I think that Pink Did a great job showing the cruelty and im glad to say she has gained alot of my respect she recently didnt have. I hope more celeberties step up and follows Pink's example by using there fame and fortune to help other people who cant speak up and gain attion and more importantly animals who even if they wanted to...can't speak for themselves.
Thanks again for helping and giving the sheep a voice,

At he beginning of this video I thought it was bad enough how they treated the sheep, but later on in the video I started tocry because that is SO awful. Why do people treat animals this way?

.. Pink, you have a full support.

Posted by: Fliss | December 27, 2006 04:34 PM

heya p!nk!!
not reali into ur kinda music but i think ur amazing for wa ur doing =] keep up the gd work =] xXx

Posted by: angharad | December 27, 2006 04:35 PM

All I have to say to you is thank you. There are so much famous people that really don't care about anything, expect things like how big their new house will be. You are really a good role model! Once more thank you for caring.

Posted by: Val | December 27, 2006 04:36 PM

Pink thanks heaps for doing this video.
Maybe now some people will see how cruel farmers are to sheep.
I am Australian and I have seen how farmers treat sheep and it makes me sick!

Seeing as ur video has been noticed world wide maybe people will stand up for the poor sheep! Well hopefully.

Thanks again and keep on supporting these helpless animals!

Peace out Hunni!! xox

Posted by: Brigette | December 27, 2006 04:42 PM

I think that what you are doing is completely and One Hundred Percent Correct. Standing up for what you and thousands, probably MIllions of others are thinking, but are too afraid to speak up.

SO i just want to say Thanks, for giving the Animals a Voice, and Saying what they Can not.

Stay Strong and Keep standing tall, and dont let anything Set you off from what you want to Accomplish.

Posted by: Megan | December 27, 2006 04:44 PM

Thumbs up to you girl!

Posted by: Claire | December 27, 2006 04:45 PM

It hurts me to say that without you, many people would not care about this. Thank you, Pink, for taking the time to stand up for the animals. For some reason in society today, many people only care about what the "fad" is with celebrities. That's why it is very important for more people to be like you..

Posted by: Kayla | December 27, 2006 04:45 PM

I nearly cried and almost puked more than once. Wish I'd have taken the barf bag hint more seriously. Let's just say I won't be buying wool any time soon. And I'll be hoping against hope that I can thank you personally at your concert next month. I love you, Pink! Thank you so much for speaking out.

The images are shocking! Fortunately that they are some "human" make become aware with the others that the animals suffer and die for us!

Sorry for my bad english, I am french.

Posted by: Corinne | December 27, 2006 04:52 PM

Pink, We need more artists out there like yourself. You are an inspiration to our youth and are teaching many that it is time for a change. Your video is heartfelt and intense. I really think with you as a front woman there will be positive changes in the wool industry. We,(especially peeps in the industry) need to stop wearing trendy clothing that supports animal torture or even fur at all. Thanks for being you and we can't wait to see you with Justin down here in Fort Lauderdale.

I want to thank miss pink for her efforts in causing awareness for these sheep. for trying to give a voice to the voiceless. I was horrified when i saw that these sheep are being needlessly tortured for their fur, that could be easily shaved off, harmlessly.! my god, i hope people realize how important it is to defend the lives of these gental animals. Thank you pink, for using your celebrality for the good of an over looked cause. You are a beautiful person.

Pink I love you so much already and doing this for the Sheep make me love you even more! I wish I had a voice as strong as your and that people would listen to me like they do you. You are awesome and thank you so much for using your power to help others. The Sheep thank you too!

Hello there!! GREAT exposure video Pink... (not to mention your music is awesome)

Keep up the fantastic work... I'm going to Australia this summer and I'm glad I know about this now. You're rad!!

Posted by: Glee | December 27, 2006 05:15 PM

Hey Pink! Just wanted to say a huge thanks for standing up for the voiceless. No one should have to endure what the sheep go through everyday. I admire your strength and hope you know we're all behind you, supporting you and the cause. Rock on!

wow. i think that it is really great for a famous person who people look up to to be saying something. i have recently boycotted wool because of what i saw on that video.

Posted by: criss | December 27, 2006 05:18 PM

Pink, I knew the second I got an email notice from PETA that this would be a smashing success. Thanks so much for your awareness and your education-spreading!!! Many people ARE blind to the ways sheep are treated (once upon a time myself, too!) and education of the horrors of the wool industry is so important! Not only are you a complete hottie, but you have a heart of gold!
As a side note - I recently started rocking out a nose hoop rather then the stud I've worn for the last 3 years, and all the time I get, "You look like Pink in her newest video! She's so hot!" Anyways, thanks again for your work!

Heyy.

You're awesome. Sometimes I wish I was famous just so that I could have the opportunity to speak to many different people and make strong points like you do. Keep doing what your doing. Everyone knows that whats going on in our world today with animals is wrong. They aren't ment to be killed, they aren't needed for fur, or food, etc. It's completely sick. I havent watched the video, I can't. That stuff is too hard for me to see, I know what goes on and thats enough information for me to compeltely be against it.

Posted by: Amanda | December 27, 2006 05:40 PM

gday pink! im from australia and have been campaigning with animal lib for decades to stop this excrutiatingly painful practice. wot u have done has made me feel vindicated that all our hard work is worth it cos u now are the bravest celeb eva helping all the poor animals. i luv u with all my heart xx

Posted by: Jaylene | December 27, 2006 05:46 PM

That video was horribly disgusting and sad. They weren't even wearing gloves.. how sadistic is that? Those poor sheep, and all the other animals being tortured for various reasons. Thank you Pink for speaking out for those who cannot. <33

Posted by: Tiffany | December 27, 2006 06:12 PM

While in no way do I think mulesing is a humane practice, I find it interesting to note that you do not provide any information regarding alternative remedies for removing fly-strike in sheep on your website. Yes mulesing is painful, but so is dying as a result of fly-strike. I have spoken to a farmer who doesn't agree with the procedure but says it is the only practical method currently available to them. Is Pink going to pay for training or research into alternate methods? I would find it highly unlikely. Don't assume that just because a method is used that the people who use it agree with it. Maybe if Pink was willing to spend some time on a merino farm and speak with the farmers and see their side of the debate I would have some respect for her. It's not good enough to 'educate' people about a problem and speak out against it if you aren't going to offer a solution.

Posted by: rainy | December 28, 2006 12:53 AM

I didnt even have to watch the whole thing and something should be done because even if I eat meat or whatever I feel terrible..This is like illegal and it just hurts to watch. Its rude and cruel. If anything I would help stop this. But I dont know how but I would figure out. And I dont see how someone could have it in there heart to slotter so many animals and do such harm. I say go pink not only do I love your music I just completly admire you for your effort. You are my idol!!!!

Posted by: Katrina | December 28, 2006 03:00 AM

I have never cried for an animal creulty video and I was scared to watch it because I have an adorable coat that I think has some percentage of wool in it and now I have to throw it away. I love life.

Posted by: Lindsay | December 28, 2006 04:55 AM

Thank you Pink for sticking up for the helpless animals. Animals like the sheep in your video are helpless and it makes me sick that any human being can be capable of such cruelty and be able to watch any animal suffer like that. People like that do not even have the right to exist on this earth.

Posted by: Kim L | December 28, 2006 05:11 PM

thank you pink, its awesome to hear great celebs like you fighting for animal rights!. It really helps alot. The video was good, this will really bring some attention, very painfull to see, but yes, it can be stoped.once again thanks, ur awesome!

Posted by: Gabriel | December 28, 2006 08:08 PM

thank you so much Pink! please use your status to spread more awareness and help save these animals!! I am so sick of singing brainless teens wear these products with no knowledge that such outrageous things happen to these kind creatures! it makes me so sad and tearful, i cant thank you enough for spreading awareness!

Posted by: tina | December 29, 2006 02:52 AM

Have you seen what happens to sheep if they don't have their flanks cut off and then go about their daily business in the harsh australian heat surrounded by hundreds of flies? Trust me its alot worse, the poor things get fly blown and more often then not what the farmer doesnt cut off will be slowly eaten away by maggots and infection anyway. Although i do think the procedure should be done in a more humane way and that the live export trade is disgusting, people need to know that there are two sides to every story and banning 'museling' would probably lead to more suffering on the sheeps behalf anyway.

Posted by: Jake | December 29, 2006 04:37 AM

Don't sweat it guys. I've died and I know (read: KNOW_)that there is a reckoning for those who mistreat his creatures.It's OK.

Posted by: Mark Steven Skinner | December 29, 2006 07:59 AM

Thanks for making me aware of issues like this. My wife was looking at celebrity stuff and i saw the link to Pink's video and all of the sudden I'm an animal rights activist. Thanks PETA and Pink.

Posted by: Nick | December 29, 2006 09:46 PM

A horrifying eye-opener. I've posted the link at my blog. Would now like to try mulesing on some of the sheep farmers and see how they like it.

Posted by: 500cbfan | December 30, 2006 12:41 AM

I am in tears I am stunned by this. I can't understand any human being so cruel to any animal this is outragous. I will NEVER buy wool, leather or any animal products again. my eye have been blown open...

Posted by: Jennifer snow | December 30, 2006 09:42 AM

I agree to boycott the australian wool. Why should we have to make the animals suffer. Four our sake. God brought us to this world not alone but with animals and the plants. They need a voice and I'm glad its you Pink. I understand there is a need for comsumption of food and cloth to survive, but going beyong making animals suffer for our sake. Specially for fur. I said no way. It's not right and its not fair to the animals. God, I hope you are outthere, somehting you have to do to make human pay for what they are doing to your animal friends. Enough is enough.

Posted by: janet | December 30, 2006 11:29 AM

Naive. Yes, stop mulesing by all means, it is a disgusting, barbaric process, but why make it so general. Australia isnt the only country to produce Merino wool

Posted by: hula | December 30, 2006 08:10 PM

my god i have just watch the clip and i have never seen anything so sad i feel mad with myself that i have had cloths in the past that are made of wool but no more they are out the door and i have to say p!nk did a fab job on the clip i hope it is succesful and gets loads more viewers thanx alot for reading
vicki xxxxx
remember NO MORE WOOL !

Posted by: vicki | December 30, 2006 10:28 PM

just so yoiu know merino sheep were originally from spain and they are actually well suited to the Australian climate. Why else do you think they have done so well in Australia since the arrival the first fleet?

Posted by: fluba | December 31, 2006 07:49 AM

Well done to Pink for spreading the word about wool - keep up the good work!
It's about time people learnt the truth about all the masses of animal suffering around the world and lived animal-cruelty-free lives as I have learnt to over the years. There is no excuse for this whatsoever.

Posted by: Sue Nightingale | December 31, 2006 10:47 AM

Though I understand that animal cruelty is a shame, I think it's foolish for anyone to spend time worrying about sheep when there's so much else wrong with the world. Shame on you all!

Posted by: Ben S. | December 31, 2006 07:26 PM

I think it is great what Pink is doing to raise awareness to people about the cruelty of wool and especially now when the fad is Ugg boots made from sheepskin from Austrailia

Posted by: Anne Browarny | December 31, 2006 09:50 PM

That is disgusting. I had no idea. i'll never bring wool into my house again.

what can we do ,,all of us posted comments must be from all over the world why cant we stand up and fight for what is right ,,we need action,people will listen more if we have the perfect way of telling the fact there are only animal rights people listening now,the target is not people like us trying to save the animals from world ,we need to target the world with the information and facts that we know about,so what can we do ,setting up pettitions and all that just doesnt ,have to think of sufficticated way of the things,aisling - ireland.

Posted by: aisling newman | January 2, 2007 05:00 PM

DAMN!!

Im not usually into this "hippie" animal rights stuff- but after seeing this video, I am DISGUSTED at the treatment of these poor animals.

The way that animal was butchered while still conscious was DIGUSTING.

People must stop hiding behind their cultures to get away with this barbarity.

GOOD JOB PINK!!

No more wool for me.

Posted by: Adrian | January 2, 2007 08:33 PM

After seening the video and kind of got sick.. I mean that is really mean doing that to that poor animal.. Something has to be done.. I am going to be by pinks side no matter what happens.. That is down right cruel to do that to sheeps..

Posted by: Alisha | January 3, 2007 06:53 AM

very good job pink.je suis francaise et je voulais juste dire que j'approuve ce que Pink vient de faire.i am just bewildered and i can't imagine that people can do that...that animal cruelty is a shame...barbaric process.i'm with pink.je te soutien jusqu'au bout.bravo.

Posted by: rizléne | January 3, 2007 07:55 AM

Thanks to PETA for making us aware of what's going on. This video should be shown on tv! Thanks to Pink for lending her celeb status to the cause as well.

Posted by: Kelly | January 5, 2007 09:28 AM

Even though I already KNEW cruelty to animals existed all around the world before watching this, nothing could have been more of a wake-up-and-smell-the-evil-in-the-world, slap-in-the-face for me than this. I think that's just it though, that we get so caught up in our own lives that we choose not to worry about the things we label as "none of my business" just cuz it doesn't affect us directly... But you know what? I've never felt so selfish before in my life...

And PINK, you are my hero! thanks

Posted by: Joni_D. | January 8, 2007 01:47 AM

Wow.
Pink, your doing a great job! thank you! they honestly need to ban this disgusting torture!! these sheep are living breathing animals && the people doing this have no heart what so ever, id like to get my hands on them.. im trying to get further && deeper into helping these animals i want to put a complete stop to animal abuse once && for all.

i am a card carrying vegan who doesn't wear wool or leather. I was absolutely horrified by this video. It has really upset me. I now have an answer for all those people who say, 'wool doesn't hurt the sheep'! I will direct them to the peta website. thank you peta and pink. xx

Posted by: janey | January 12, 2007 11:53 AM

i wacthed this video & started crying. im not a vegatarian.. but i do think about it.But i do not were any products of clothes that are made out of animals. I coulkd never do that. but im sorry that i have trouble giving up meat. I don't eat it as much anymore. But i do suport this alot. two of my friends are & i see how much they suports this. She gets things from peta like stickers & booklits and i read them all the time . I really do support this & i reposted this video on a bullientin on myspace . So yea im gonna try to give up meat it will take me a little but im going to try. =]

Posted by: Allyson | January 15, 2007 05:05 PM

You have a great heart and you should be very proud that you are one of those who actually cares about animal cruelty, not like those who are ignorant and do not have a care in the world. Hopefully some of these people will watch these videos, and think about what they are doing!!SHAME ON THOSE WHO DO NOT CARE ABOUT INNOCENT CREATURES

Posted by: Paola | January 16, 2007 01:05 PM

I will never buy wool of any kind again. I had no idea that this was happening. Thank you Pink for opening my eyes to yet another cruelty. I just went vegetarian, but now I see that is not enough! I cannot fathom how people can be so cruel.

Posted by: Barbara Moscato | January 17, 2007 02:35 PM

This is one of the most gut wrenching things I have ever seen! I applaud Pink for standing up for these beautiful creatures and I will do my part in boycotting all wool products and will do my best to spread the word. Keep up the good work Pink! I'm becoming a big fan.

Posted by: Pete | January 17, 2007 02:56 PM

I think it is great that Pink has exposed this horrific disgusting business. Fortunatley more and more famous people are coming out to expose many different types of animal slaughter. But unfortunatley many people still turn away and don't want to even look at video footage. They think well I can't do anything about it. It only takes one person to look, to listen to pass on the word, and if you open your eyes you can help! You may be one person in the world, but to the animals you are one person that helped! Keep going PINK! And to people who care out there, also check out harpseals.org, and the slaughter the harp seals go thru in Canada, or the cat and dog fur trade in china - your cat toys may actually be cat.

Posted by: Marisa | January 18, 2007 12:49 AM

I thought since Aussies are so supportive of anti-whaling, that they were a very civilized and humane country. NO MORE. Oh, my God. Why is such massive and deliberate cruelty done to these sweet docile creatures? Thank you so much for giving the sheep a "voice". They deserve to be seen and their stories "told".

Posted by: Amanda | January 18, 2007 10:54 PM

I was totally disgusted by this video, but thankful that Pink is doing this for the good of the animals. I for one, am now going to be more aware of what my clothing are made of, as well as what I eat. Today has shed a lot of light on a lot of different issues dealing with animals. Yeah Pink and PETA for helping do this.

Posted by: sherri | January 27, 2007 07:39 PM

Dear Pink, thank you so much for speaking up for animals. You are a great person, and a great musician. I love both your music and your actions to save the animals! Thank you!!!!!

Posted by: Perrault Ans | February 2, 2007 03:17 PM

Traumatizing, horrific, sick, people who can live with themselves after doing these things to any living creature should be considered on the same level as serial/mass murderers. I would love to meet one of you sick (blanks) face to face!!
Thanx to Pink I'm glad you brought this to my attention now all we need is to make a music video or commercial for other people blind to this holicost

Posted by: jennie | February 15, 2007 10:05 PM

As an Australian i am disgusted to know just how cruel our farmers are to make a buck.
I am sure that they are so immune to this sadistic torture that they cannot understand that animals are as just as alive as we are.
Who are the real animals though! It is sickening, if only the poor helpless sheep could put a knife to the farmers arse, then maybe this barbaric behaviour would stop.
Your voice for the sheep as ours in the future has to surely change this indusrtry's ways.!!!
This should also be posted on Interantional T.V programs. Come on people with power, let your voice count too!

I am doing a uni assignment for law that is based on this issue, and it has opened my eyes to this problem. I am appaled and completely support pink. However, i think that there should be some warning around the video clip warning people of the graphic nature...as i was horrified at the slaughter.

Posted by: Brad | March 9, 2007 10:46 PM

i'm french so excuse my englisch...i just want to say that i'm very choked by this video this kind of people should be killed for what they do !!! its really really awful and i can not accept it !!! THAHKS a lot Pink !!!

Posted by: mélanie | March 10, 2007 03:38 PM

First off, I'd like to say congratulations to Pink for being so courageous to talk about such an upsetting topic and for doing a very influential job on it.

I feel violated after watching that. Especially by the Australian wool industries. It's something that I was completely unaware of and I feel cheated that the industries had kept that swept under the rug simply to save their ass and because it would cost them.
It's going to cost them now that its becoming a bigger issue and that more people are becoming aware.
I am particularly upset because I saw that in the video one of the workers in the Middle East who was slaughtering the sheep was young. Its an issue that youth are involved as they are being influenced by the industry and without change, they will only follow in the industries old ways once they have authority.

WHEN MY HUSBAND AND I WERE IN THE ARMY, AT ONE TIME I STAYED AT HIS GRANDMAS HOME OUT IN THE MOUNTAINS OF UP NORTH IDAHO. GRANDMA DID HER OWN SHEEP AND GOATS AND FED THEM WITH BOTTLES,ETC. I NEVER KNEW IN THIS LIFE THE TRUTH ON ANIMAL ABUSE THROUGH OUT GODS EARTH COULD BE SO EVIL AND RUN BY DEVILS THAT TORTURE THESE AMAZING CREATURES THAT ARE GODS HOLY ANIMAL SPIRITS.WE ALL OF GODS CHILDREN NEED TO MARCH STRONGER TO SAVE THEM FROM CRUELTY AND PRAY FOR MORE HUMANE ETHICAL GODLY WAYS. LOVE JAZZ

Posted by: JAZZ | March 17, 2007 09:55 AM

First, thanks with total appreciation to Pink for lending her voice to this atrocity.

Second, this behavior is unconscionable and horrific. I shall definitely NOT purchase any Australian wool and shall research the fabric source before purchasing any woolen clothing.

Wool SHOULD be the bloodless product from these precious animals.

Thank you, again.

Next time Pink is on the Ellen Degeneres show, she needs to tell Ellen to get involved with this since Ellen's girlfriend Portia is from there.

IKEA is my favourite store for home furnishing and decor. But I found it very disturbing that they are selling real sheep skins to be used as rugs on the floor. That is really creepy, how can you sleep in a room with a dead animal skin on the floor next to your bed??

It was because of this site and the information Pink explained that I am now a supporter of PETA. Thank you for getting this information out there. I am helping to spread the word.

Thank you Pink for all that you are doing to end animal suffering. Not only are you one of the most talented artist out there but you have a heart of gold as well. God Bless you.

I'm Australian and through studying agriculture I've been exposed to the issue of mulesing.
It is extremely interesting to see that PETA has not published an article regarding Pink's backdown from her anti- Australian wool stance that is presented in this article. In January, 2007, Pink admitted that she "probably could have done a lot more research" and that she was misinformed by PETA- which failed to tell her that Australian farmers were and are still committed to phasing out the practice of mulesing by 2010. PETA has failed to present the surgical alternatives that are currently being researched and developed on their websites, presenting an undeniably one- sided argument to mulesing.
Notice how there is only a video of mulesing, but NONE of flystrike? Flystrike is many times worse than mulesing- it kills sheep slowly and painfully as they are eaten alive by maggots. Without mulesing, millions of sheep would die this way.
PETA says that "Ironically, the exposed, bloody wounds themselves often get flystrike before they heal"- seeing as PETA appears to believe that Australian wool farmers want only profit without caring for their animals, why would they mules their sheep if mulesing itself led to flystrike? PETA's claims are extremely self contradictory and exaggerated when it comes to mulesing.
Anyone who comments in the future, or anyone who has already commented needs to do more research and not only base their opinions on what they have seen in this article. Please, everyone, get the full story behind mulesing and you'll see that there's a lot more to mulesing than PETA says it is.

As an Australian Wool grower, I'd like to invite anyone to come and see the real life of an Aussie sheep. When you get the smell of a flyblown sheep up your nose and see it's horrific suffering due to being eaten alive, mulsing may become clearer to you. Go on mate, take up my offer!

the video clip was one of the sadest things i have ever seen i cant believe what they do. i do know that i dont know a lot about this and it seems that both mulesing and flystrike are both horrific. i believe that p!nk is a great artist with both a talented voice and a heart of gold. <3

Sarah is about the only comment that makes any sense at all. IT is all very well for you lot to complain about other peoples work when you have never been in that suituation. I have grown up on a farm with sheep and cattle, we do not like doing it but there is no alternitive readly avaiable. And to say that we do not care about the animals is just BS at the best. Why dont you actually get a normal sheep to show on the video and not a double fleeced sheep that has been missing in the paddock and has therfore missed the last shearing and now has 2 years worth of wool on it. You people need to look at it from the other side of the coin.

Sorry i also forgot to add (to my pervious comment, that wont be put on the site) that farmers and whoever does the musling does not use gardening shears. They are actually wool shears that have been in use in the wool industry since it has started. They are nothing like gardening shears at all. Just another way PETA has got the facts wrong.

this is the saddest thing.
i just watched that video
and now im sitting here crying

I was just shocked and horrified to see all these teenagers and there parents jumping all over the displays of uggs and buying UGGS at the nordtrom today in freehold nj mall, there also was a girl painting designs on the boots for free as a perk if you bought them,it was horible people these people i dont think they know the cruety or want to know what happens to the sheep very bAAAAAD i think

Pink mentions mulesing, but i'd like you too see when a sheep is fly blown.

Do you even know what it's like to not deal with the sheep when they are lambs... they get maggots & get eaten from the inside out. The process can take months & it's painful, as the sheep dies slowly.

Tell me, which is more savage, cutting away a little bit of skin when the sheep is a lamb or watching a sheep being eaten alives by flies?

Stop being a sophist, do some research before you start your witch hunt.

If you want to see something gross...

This makes me sick! How can ANYONE possibly do this to an animal! Thank god we have people like Pink in the world who have enough courage and passion to make videos like this! She is absolutly amazing and even if you dont like her music (I love her and her music hehe) then you can admire her simply because she makes videos like this! Pink, your amazing!

Im an Aussie and a Farmer, I think on a whole these comments are biased and uninformed. I personally dont agree with alot of current farming practices and musling should definately be fazed out asap but by having the very fashion houses who demaded this wool turn their back on this industry is terrible, apart from the musling issue the majority of farmers look after their livestock very well, by destroying the industry PETA is definately sending these sheep to the middle east for an even crueler fate. Where then will the fashion houses get their wool, from China or some other third world country that may not musle their sheep but they definately are not look after. PETA has choosen to work againt farmers rather than with them. the better approach would be to encourage fashion houses to pay a high premium for un museled wool. This would have been the best incentive for farmers to switch over to sheep breeds that dont need to museled. by boycotting australian wool PETA is not only affecting museled wool farmers but all farmers.PETA needs to realise that these things cant be changed over night, to do it would take up to 10 years, seriously what does PETA suggest farmers do with all these wrinkly merinos?
As an Aussie farmer I dont endorse musling but I dont endorse PETA's approach either. Perhaps PETA could chip in a few million of their $$ to help farmers make the change rather than send them broke and the sheep off to the middle east. This issue alone makes me wonder why I even ever supported and promoted PETA.
