We’re shipping humans live. It’s not as if we subject sheep to something we aren’t willing to undertake ourselves.

What are you talking about exactly? Are thousands of humans dying of heat stress due to spending weeks at sea in literally unbearable conditions? It's horrific.

I'm talking about shipping sheep/animals by sea. The conditions of said shipping can sure use some improvement, but banning it altogether seems like an overreaction.

Citation needed. Last time I tried to ship someone in a container I got 20 years.
