Leaving the ethics aside for a moment, I don't understand the economics of it all. Surely shipping live animals has to be the most expensive of all the options? Chilled or frozen meat takes up far less space, doesn't need feeding and watering on route, doesn't make the whole ship smell, doesn't need secrecy and security precautions, doesn't require vets' inspections etc, etc.
And with frozen sperm, you can get 100,000 sheep in a small van.
