I was sent a link to this bizarre series of photos. I manipulated them a bit to make them clearer and to zoom in on the stuff. Its quite amazing. I’m not sure whose car this is – the insinuation seems to be some black guy who was transporting cattle in his CAR! It looks pretty cruel… but that’s nothing in Africa. Cruelty is nothing new over here.

The Afrikaans Text on that page reads:-
Toe kry ek hierdie foto™s van Mario en Francois. (152)˜n Nuwe benadering in die vervoer van beeste. Net wanneer mens dink dat jy nou alles in die lewe gesien het, is daar weer iets wat jou stom slaan.

‘n Tazz is voorwaar ‘n biellie van ‘n voertuig. Dink net wat die ekonomie aan brandstof kan bespaar wanneer Tazz ‘n aanpassing op hul bande maak om groter gewig te dra.

Dit lyk of die kallers dit self nie kan glo nie. Dankie vir die inset.

The above text says that these calves were transported in a Toyota Tazz. Tazz I think is just another name for a type of Toyota Conquest. It does not specify where it happened – but this is a S.African website and the photos were taken by Afrikaners so I presume this occurred somewhere in S.Africa.

Take a look at these photos:-

This first one seems to have been taken at night.

Here is a closeup… look at what is in the rear of the car… the brown fur… its a calf (you’ll see these are quite big calves)…

In this closeup you will see how their hooves are tied together.

Look at them bundled into the rear of the vehicle… I suspect they were caught at night… perhaps by a border?

This is the same car in the morning. Look at how the front left seat was removed. By the way, those animals must have been a-hurting … because the back looks pretty uncomfortable to me.

And here they are… all three of them… the one on the right is pretty big… Well… chalk this one up to another amazing thing a Toyota has been used for in Africa! (Africa is Toyota country… cheap, reliable, tough…
