incident

Dry-cargo ship Harun Konan – the flag of Turkey – ran ashore on the Rvach River (right arm of the Dnipro).

Livestock vessels are a fairly quick way to transport live cargo by sea, but not always everything goes according to plan. Animals need to be provided not only with a place, but also with food, water, air, and most importantly, it is necessary to monitor the health of livestock. Not all vessels cope with this task, which leads to many problems – animals die, get sick, and sometimes a whole herd is infected, which in the end is simply sent to slaughter.
