Animal transporters are used to transport livestock or non-livestock animals over long distances. They could be specially-modified vehicles, trailers, ships or aircraft containers. [1] [2] While some animal transporters like horse trailers only carry a few animals, modern ships engaged in live export can carry tens of thousands.

The Animal Transportation Association is the primary organization advocating for humane animal transport. [3]
