Mulesing sheep and lambs

Target: Hon.John Howard, Prime Minister
Region: Australia
Background (Preamble):
The Mulesing of lambs and young sheep is an extremely cruel procedure inflicted on thousands of Australian sheep every year.
Mulesing sheep involves running a sharp knife around the breech end of the sheep ripping off the wool and skin about the size of a dinner plate, there is no anaesthetic, and no vets. The people doing this don't care as to the accuracy of their cuts, how deep they cut or how far the ripped skin tears.
Is this the Australain way? MR Howard we are asking you to please put a stop to this cruelty.
