Livestock under threat

Description

Today at Limpopo Sekhukhune region at Fetakgomo-Tubatse municipality (Hackney). Mr Mahlakwane reported to have last saw his cow last week Friday, it was then revealed that his cow is strapped at Hackney mine stream. In our arrival at the stream, we found the cow still alive and battling for its life. On the side-lines of the stream lied another cow which appeared to have long died. Mr. Mahlakwane’s cow appeared to be very week with doubts for possible recovery. The cow died and he went to the mine to take the matter up with the head of security; he chose that route because it is believed that the water is contaminated.
