  • Horse slaughter feeds many starving countries! It keeps the horse population down and many from STARVING to death? Would you rather them die a slower death than slaughter? At least some food comes from this than illegally burying them and having it run into our water supply! Euthanization is bad for the environment!

  • STOP HORSE SLAUGHTER! Horse Slaughter is not right! They do NOTHING to deserve this! They do SO much for their Masters and ask for so little in return! These WONDERFUL animals just want love, and GRASS and HAY! So why just give them to a slaughter house? Thats just PATHETIC! We ride, jump, race, and love these animals! Slaughter is WRONG! Some people may not love them like others but IM one of those people who say "STOP THIS NONSENCE!"

  • @CheerChicka246 So what do U plan to do when You ban slaughter and the next generation of problems show up?Problems that are far worse then the current ones? they have ban slaughter in ur country and You all ready r facing far worse abuse cases than what happened in slaughter plants. So Y would you persist to continue with a policy that is proven to fail?

  • @rancherjongus I have a voice they do not I may be young but i can atleast try

  • @CheerChicka246 did U not read my comment? Banning horse slaughter makes the problem worse. did U see what's happened to the horse in the states after the ban was slapped on. These problems make the whole horse slaughter issue look trivial. And there is a reason Y horses don't have a voice. It's cause there animals. Perhaps U should do a little research b4 You let animal rights special interest groups pull at ur heartstrings and take ur membership money.

  • @rancherjongus

    leaRn How to CaPitaLize.

  • what can i do???

  • why do we ''human beings'' think were so big and powerful???

  • (horse)- I don't understand. I did so much for you and this is how you repay me :'( I competed i raced i won i got poorly i died :( This is not fair i can be treated :( xxxx

  • I am a Rancher in Colorado. Thanks to Bo Dereck and her efforts by getting legislation passed to prevent the consumption of horse flesh. Horses are now going for about $100.00 at the auctions They are a liability to own and are starving because people can't get rid of them when they can't afford to feed them anymore. Their misguided and best of intentions have relegated the horse to becoming the least valuable of all domestic animals.

    These once prized and pampered animals are now worthless.

  • horse meat yum

  • @H0RnsH1GH shut the f*** up cuz if you dont have anything good to say then dont say anything at all! just think what if this was you?, what if this was your family or your friends?

  • ppl i flaged this video so dont worrie we well allmost ALL OF US LOVE HORSES I WILL NOT SLAUTER MY HORSE IF MY HORSE IS SICK I WILL SET HIM OR HER FREE FOR THERE SACOF LI8FE ON EARTH

  • thank you for the video i wish there were more people like you

  • It's not peoples faults sometimes you know. People have overbred horses and now that the economy is down nobody can afford to take care of their horses. I do believe if I was a horse I'd rather be slaughtered than starve to death, or not be able to walk because my hooves are in such bad shape. If people would study horse behavior they could find a way to make slaughter more kind. Their are kind slaughter facilities for cows. Yes humans are terrible I dont disagree. But dont blame all humans.

  • i dont give a f*** about economy they still shouldnt be doing this! sorry dont get mad

  • People kill people you think this subject is going to be more important?

  • @ZR1Terror yes we all do :)

  • If everyone who watched this video sent $10 to a horse rescue, that $817,000 would save a lot of horses and help care for those that have already been saved. I volunteer with two rescues and I've seen how cruel humans can be. If you really care, send a few bucks. Or offer your time to help if there's a rescue nearby. Write your Congress people and tell them to pass the Horse Protection Act that has been waiting on Capitol Hill for 3 years while hundreds of thousands of horses are slaughtered.

  • its a well said vid ,but look up the word Anthropomorphism

  • i dont either when people eat them also for cows their doing it now when they are 1 old i wont eat meat even if its not horses or cows :-( lets stop this once and for all!

  • i agree when i hear these things i think "its us thats doing it and if their gone like a blink it was us and it would have never have stopped" i care for horses and if u do to then say " LETS STOP!"

  • if we just left nature alone these wonderful horses would have a long HAPPY LIFE not what THEY call happy. its pathetic!

  • Letting the horses suffer and be abused before being brutally killed is not humane at all. Eating them is one thing, abusing and causing suffering for eating, no that is different. I dont like people eating horses and I hate horse slaughter.

  • A horse is no more special or unique than a cow or any other animal. Just because you see it as more majestic and beautiful does not mean it is. Your are showing undeserved favoritism.

  • I would say I don't agree.

    Slaughtering a horse is nothing like slaughtering a cow, or another animal. For one it's humane, two horses have been knows as man's greatest companion, I don't think the ranges of a cows loyalty stretches as far as a horses. I personally don't eat cow meat. I don't eat steak, I'll eat chicken and fish and that is as a source of protein.

  • I'm sorry if i'm going to sound rude, but it was wrong for the slaughter houses to be closed down in Usa. I'm not a fan of it, i personally rescued a horse from slaughter and I still own him to this day, but the horses were being humanley killed here. Now that they are all closed, horses are being crammend into trailers and are being shipped to Mexico for inhumane slaughter. look at the big picture people, would we rather have horses go through a horrible long death, or die painlessley for food?

  • I dont like horse slaughter but i don't like how all of you would cry over this while enoying a steak dinner? If your a vegeitarian / vegan you can say how downright horrible it is , if not , don't be a hypocrite and pick and choose what animals you think it's okay to slaughter

  • these poor horses don deserve this... they do so much for us andthe one tim they needed us we just turned our backs... well i say enough is enough! its time to stand up and make a difference! lets all hope is not to late!

  • i hate horse slaughter no one should kill a horse for no reason i understand humanly putting a horse to sleep because it is to sick to live anymore and you dont want to put it theough all the pain but that is out of love for the horse but slaughter is for nothing just to kill ='[

  • what a nice video!! But I don't want this beautiful creature to go!! I really want to save them!

  • this made me cry as last year I had to sell my mare I loved with all my heart and soul because I was experiencing severe medical problems.I tried to do everything right researching her new owners,but they sold her.Ive tried to track them down but can't.Not a day goes by that I don't think of her and hope she is cared for.Kita you were perfect and I loved you with all my heart.Wherever you are,please know not a moment goes by I don't think of you.Never think you weren't loved.You always will be.

  • i feel so...ashamed. wat have we done? its all our fault & nothing can wipe the blood from our hands. what judgment will God pass on us? even those of us who have done nothing to harm them? we are a cruel and violent race. we have destroyed the earth. we have taken control of everything...by force. we fight other countries, we steal, we lie, we cheat...we kill. and for what? to make this world a better place? i think not. let them run free in peace. they dn't deserve to suffer from our mistakes.

  • @H0rseL0ver15 what "race" do you refer to?

  • @deviltro the human race, of course.

  • u guys no that horse is also dog food its sad

  • I Cant Stop Crying!

    Thank You For This Touching Vid!

  • i got really misty in your video. and no, Qleke, it is NEVER good to get your horse slaughtered. even if it is sick or hurt. u try to nurse it back to health, and if that doesnt work or help, u bring it to a vet to peacefully put it down, ensted of dieing in a hell of a slaughter house with inhumaine ways of killing the horses. think about that...

  • that made me cry. fix those grammar errors. i favorited this. good job.

  • i agree " STOP HORSE SLAUGHTERING NOW" there´s NO reason for humans to eat horse meat SHAME ON ALL ppls THEY DO

  • It's a beautifull movie,

    and it's right how you speak.

    This must stop. :'(

  • any animal abuse is totally wrong, and anyone who does it should be punished!

  • punished how so ? that sounds slightly insane?

  • how can some one so horrible be so cruel to an animals so beautiful

  • wow i kinda got teary eyed and that was rly touching not trying to be drama-ish but that rly was and uhh i gotta get that on my ipod as my saver

  • vraiment triste ce que les humains peuvent faire ..

    Oui nous sommes les plus grands prédateurs, mais les seules aussi qui tuons pour le (plaisir)???

  • It's nice but it's not always bad to get your horse slaughtered.. Like when it's very sick or hurt.. But beautiful video :)

  • aww this is a really good video

  • I hate, really HATE, people who kill horses.

  • its the last but that always gets me!!!

  • This video actually brought tears to my eyes, i dont' understand how anyone could kill a horse that in humanely.

  • well may be some people have harts for animals un like others

  • i love it its going 2 make me cry dont belive anything OriginalChosen1 says that person does not no any thing horses dont have a mind like ours they cant winny on the count of 3 we run thos vidio is perfect

  • This is for all the horse-lovers who claim that horses are so intelligent. If they're so damn smart, why don't they run away and take off into the wild before they're slaughtered? They should know, just by hearing people talk, and they should sense that something's not right! That is, if they are as smart as people claim they are! When at the slaughterhouse, they should all work together to break free!

  • Hey eubank, I don't know about anyone else, but I wouldn't want a gay person to make my head spin!

  • Is Horse Slaughter related to Sgt. Slaughter?

  • awhh... *sniffle* so sad... I have my own horse, and I couldnt imagine myself without him! =( And for all the people that think this is a stupid movie, what if you were a horse? You had an owner and they just threw you away to slaughter to people that eat you? Poor horses. You guys dont even know what they must be thinking right before they die...

  • mostly i have to stop laughing at this idiotic video. This horse is gonna fight the world to rescue who?????? Any animal that is herbivore is gonna run at the 1st sign of attack, and they will definitely dump the rider/owner/whoever. If a horse could really rescue people from world problems, then maybe we would all own one. just a thought. B

  • god doesn't exist so don't anybody say that horses were made for us to use or that cows are only made for us to eat

  • i dont want a story about your FAG GAY frends, GAY GAY GAY

  • I love your video and I think it is great that you are making a difference! We have been going to horse auctions over the summer and the conditions are heart breaking and the horses haunt you.

  • the end 1:55 always gets me going! i can hold myself togeher untill that part!!!

  • My pony almost went to slaughter and I could not amaingen my life without him

  • i think *sob* t-that people just need to try... the delicious horse meat mmm so gooooood

  • SEARCH "dont destroy my world" IF YOU WANT TO SEE HOW TO HELP HORSES!

  • Delicious!!

  • Comment removed

  • of course theres horse slaughter you ignorant bafoon! I just did a report on it!

  • stop breeding them is not the answer the answer is to get the pplz thats got no hearts at all to sotop killing them cuz horses are not made to be a humans or animals food they're here to help us

  • i wish they would stop slaughter it is mean i wish there was sompthing we could do about it

  • Is this the best you can come up with? You might want to take some classes on words and their definitions. Moreover you need to broaden your vocab. You should post a pic so we can see if you are even intelligent enough to use the word gay. I know alot of gay individuals who would make your head spin and would be offended that a one celled organism even be allowed to use that word.

  • Stop breeding them..that isnt the answer. It does no good but make less horses in the world really. I just wish people would stop this.

  • i hate the mean dummys that kill these beautiful peaceful animals!!!!!!! rrrrrr

  • but if it was to stop, what to do with all the unwanted horses?

  • I don't think any horse is 'unwanted' there are many people who would take on a horse if they knew that if they didn't its fate would be slaughter.

  • stop breeding them, well thats not the answer.

    but what do you do with all these horses if slaughter stops? no one can take them all. thats what im saying, what to do with all the horses that are supposed to go to slaughter, but if slaughters stopped there is no where for them to go.

  • There are people who can't afford some of the high prices of some horses > 5,000 and up.These unwanted horses could be adopted by good trustworthy fammilies who normally couldn't afford a horse.

  • Sick. Can't do much aout it though.

  • hu wud do somthing so horbbile, basiclly horses are jus like US!

    theiir sick,

  • Americn horses are still being slaughtered. Kill buyers are now shipping them into Canada and Mexico. The only way to truly stop this is to STOP BREEDING!!!

    There are more horses in the world than good homes to take care of them, and that is the simple sad truth. Stopping slaughter dosn't give these animals a place to go.

  • i dont like bush.i hope the new presindent cuts of at least 4 slaughter houses and if france and japan want horse meat,then go get it your self!horse abusers,kill your self and die in hell.i am just so pissed off!its like child abuse,hurting them for no reason.

  • slaughter in the US has been stopped... it is illegal.

    and now because of that thousands of horses are being neglected. unwanted, crippled, hungry, and wild horses have no where to go. what do we do with the unwanted horses? believ me, sad as it is, there are alot.

  • Your a weak human being.

  • WOW,

    This was very sad.

  • why dont you just shut the fuck up horse slaughter is horrible and it MUST stop

  • hmmm im hungry im gonna have a dbl cheeseburger

  • i dont know why enyone would put this type of thing on the internet. sure it is informative but some people want to remember the good times and WE KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENING SO JUST STOP REMINDING US!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • wow...moved me to tears...great job ='(

  • how cute is this vidéo!!

    I mean... no blood, we understand the meaning, and i love the end... :)

    Peace!!

  • Idiot what about 2500 people being killed in the same barbaric manner? If you think killing horses that way is just fine and it doesnt matter let's knock you out hang you upsidedown by your leg slit your throat and let you bleed until you finally die

  • excellent video and I like the way you chose to speak about it.

  • Its easy! just put them down! you dont have to make them go through all the misery!

  • u sik twisted minded little scum.

    Show some respect you evil horrid person.

    Makes me sick, thinking of my horse

    xx

  • You sick ass scum. What the fuck?! Go get a mental check! See if theres something wrong with your brain maybe?

  • So then, what do you suppose we do with all the unwanted/sick/lame horses? No slaughter? So all the unwanted horses will have to starve in peoples backgardens? Yeah smart one! Deal with excessive breeding and live transportation, slaughter isnt the problem!

  • thats not it at all. There are humane ways of putting the horses out of their misery - not slaughter. How would you like it if your leg was broken and then someone starved you, beat you, shot you int he head, slit your throat and then hung you up by your leg while you were still concious? There are humane ways of doing things. Slaughter is not the only option.

  • Starve and beat me? Slaughter houses kill their horses pretty much straight away, its a waste of money to keep hold of them so it would have to have been past owners that 'starved and beat' the horses. But yes a bullet through the head would be a nice way to die- very quick. My horses will all be shot and taken by the hunt when the time comes. How can they be still concious when they have just been shot in the head? Lol, they are dead then, they slit their throats to spill the blood.

  • I mean in the trailers... they don't get food or fresh water for days. The guns they use to stun the horses are made for cattle - not horses. about 2,500 horses are still concious after being shot

  • Oh i agree, live transportation is very wrong, hense why banning slaughter houses in America/Uk is a terrible idea as it just means horses are forced to travel even further to countries with less regulation. And 2,500 is a very small amount really, that must be like 1%. Im sure 1% of other forms of putting horses down have problems too, accidentally hitting the wrong area with a shotgun or a horse fighting euthenasia(sp?) which both do happen, there will always be a small percentage.

  • they arent always dead ... it aint a bullet its like a nail gun thing and sometimes it misses..

  • Sometimes being very occasionally, just as you occasionally have cock-ups in all ways of destroying an animal.

  • you sick evil person go to hell!

  • No one is going to take you seriously with the horrible grammar in your captions.

    Other than that, nice vid.

  • squirrely whoever u are, only half hearted people like you think its right, well its NOT so dont go mouthing around thinking youre so clever, have you seen the state some of these horses are having to live in until they are finally slaughtered? my guess is no! they are crammed into tiny stables with no fresh hay, food or water. they are starved until they are killed and hung up ready to be gutted. does that sound necesary to you?

  • hey wolwizy the same thing happens with cows and pigs and a lot of other animals

    why isn't nobody complaining about that?

    just because 'horses are so beautfiul and you can ride them and stuff' ? not very open-minded

  • If you do your research, people are complaining about slaughter or all animals!

  • -_- DUH!!!!

    I'm talking about the fact that there is a lot more yadayeyadea about horses (if not, certainly on Youtube)

  • cows and pigs don't go through suffering. they are immidietly knocked out and then killed. horses are forced to sufer as much as possible.

  • look up 'horse slaughter' on wikipedia

    "Horse slaughter is similar to beef slaughter except for the fact that the overhead rail that the dressed horse carcasses ride on during process is two foot higher than a feedlot beef dressing line to suit the varying sizes of the carcasses."

  • this is not actually true... many animals are left to suffer for long hours before dying. many sheep are transported on cramped, hot ships for weeks to their slaughter. Pigs become hysterical before they are killed. cows try desperatly to jump out of the pens and chickens are often plucked before the are even fully dead... go vegan or at least vegetarian x x

  • go vegan - it is the only way to stop animal suffering

  • rite on!

  • so sad

  • There's a typo:

    "It's not TOO...."

    But wow. Nice job.

  • (crying)

  • all animal abuse is rong and that is sad!

  • omg thats so sad, id never give my horses to a slughter house! >:0

  • this stuff makes me cry so hard

  • If horses are in good flesh, why waste it and render it useless with euthanasia? There is absolutely nothing dishonorable about being used for food. They are hungry people and animals out there, it is obnoxious for those who have plenty to condemn their being used as food. There are unwanted animals for many reasons, if they are in good flesh, put it to good use. We can't take care of all the people in the world, why would you make the horses welfare a priority over feeding them?

  • Why don't eat meat if they are put asleep normall? There are hormons and other chemicals in 'normal'cow/chicken/pigmeat. I'm not against eating meat, I'm against the WAY THEY ARE TREATED AND TORTURED. You love horses and animals?; so don't eat bio-industry meat

  • I have not eaten commercially raised meat in 13 years and counting. I agree the CAFO (concentrated animal feeding operations) are disgusting and the animals living in it unhealthy. I've raised my own on cert. organic feeds and butchered them on-site. When I do buy, I buy cert. organic grass fed, ie. the way they have been living for millenium. And I do not meat out unless the restruant provides the same.

  • I'm vegetarian but my friend eats biological meat. I wish that everyone should think like you; much better for animals. Again I'm not against eating meat. There are so few commercials on biological meat due to economic profits by giant-industries. I own animalshelter with some bio-industry raised animals. You can see the difference on arrival and a few weeks after living under normal conditions. Sorry, for my bad English

  • Yes, but it's how the animals are killed.

  • meat is one of the most delicious foods in the world. how can some people don't eat it?

  • horses are NOT delicious....i dont know how you could say that!i love horses & always will be there to help one! how wuold you feel if you started off with a nice & healthy life & all of a sudden you makea mistake, sold to sluaghter, chopped up, & served to ppl for food, you wouldnt like it too much would you?? well that is why we dont eat horse meat!

  • I rather doubt that you have actually ever tasted horse meat, so you can;t really say what they taste like. Horses are not people, they are livestock.

  • no, never say that to a horse lover! god maybe if you bitchy foriegners would have some fucking respect for them maybe you wouldnt eat them! you are a sick boy, & no i have NEVER tasted horse meat cause we dont eat our horses, we love them, ride them & take good care of them :(, fucking dumbass foriegners! go fuck yourself....

  • 1. I am an American

    2. I am a girl (duh)

    2. I am a horse lover

    3. I working at a show horse facility and I love my job and every horse there

    4. I am an Equine Studies and Animal and Range major at NDSU

    5. Having horse slaughter in the US is important because it gets rid of thousands upon thousands of unwanted horses.

    6. Even my teachers at school support horse slaughter as necessary

  • By the way, sending me a harassing message to my youtube inbox just proves how immature you are as a person. I treat people with respect on youtube, maybe you should as well...

  • i dont agree, but that is MY opinion, NOT yours ok? & it looks like you r not 20 by saying "duh" that is a 10 year old word, & im done arguing...

  • And you are entitled to you opinion but harassing me about MY opinion is what you did

  • ok....w/e i said i am DONE, that doesnt mean keep talkin...

  • By the way, sending me a harassing message to my youtube inbox just proves how immature you are as a person. I treat people with respect on youtube, maybe you should as well...

  • This comment makes me cry. I just dont get wye people eat meat :S

  • This made me cry.But those horses wont be seeing those ppl again, as anyone who can look at a horse and kill it/sent it to be killed, deserves to go rot in hell.

  • so sad

  • This is beautiful! (I hate when they make it like the horses talk.... It makes me want to cry more then I already do!)

    Beautiful video! (Thank you for making it!)

  • And i wish everyone can see this who's would

    They horses will do to the slaughter!

    And the slaughters to!

    But i find the slaughters have no heart.

    And no heart for animals! I'll wish no one

    animal die anymore, but thats never gonna happened i think :(

  • this is the must beautifull THing i'll ever seen.

    I had it ever a long time ago seen from you.

    And i would see it again! And now i found it again :')

    <3 This is so beautifull ! x

  • wtf have that making with this?

    Shut up with your stupid sites !

    Little child :s

  • tbh u all argue wot place eats more horse but u need to open ur eyes it DOESNT MATTER hus eating more horse it just matters hus stopping the killing and eating of more horses! surely thats more important!

  • i've always wanted to make this group where we could go to the slaughterhouses where they kill the horses and give em a piece of our minds...

    i've tried to form one but so far its not going to well...

    well how can a kid form a group like that anyways?

    so now i'm "recruiting"

    people

    by posting messages on videos made by people who are opposed to horse slaughter

    so there will be A HUGE group and we could have a little "visit" with these slaughterers

  • dont blame europe!!! we shouldnt blame them for following there culture!!!  It's america thats to blame for openng the slaughter houses! if its europes custom to eat horses(crying), then thats not our business, we cant change them. but we shouldnt b doing there dirty work!! we shouldnt kills horses at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Please not that it is not "THE Europeans" who eat horses... I am European and I would rather eat my own toes than horse meet 'cause I adore them since I could say "Pferd". I am German, I hate Germans (mostly southern) eating horses but it is not very common in Germany.

  • It isn't either in England or some other countries... it is in France, Italy and Belgium! Though I know many people who think it is disgusting to eat a proud noble animal like the horse! It is nice what you say, you can't change other cultures, very true.

    But still, don't call millions of people all just by one name if it is a minority that is doing something terrible! Majority in Europe eats beef, pork and chicken!

  • Nice video, BTW!

  • We slaughter hundreds of thouands of horses each year in this country -- to be eaten overseas by humans. Please contact your Representatives and ask them to co-sponsor HR 503 and ask your Senators to co-sponsor S311 -- help us ban the slaughter of horses; support the American Horse Slaughter Protection Act.

  • Please include in your videos, that if people were not over breeding horses, then there wouldn't be so many to be abused by ignorant people and less to slaughter!

  • horse slaughter makes me sick. i cant believe how humans have become such a horrible and deadly creature. the way we shove 4 inch nails in their head while they are still conscious,how we hang them by one back leg again while they are still conscious. it is just disgusting.

  • u said it

  • This video proves that horse slaughter is wrong beyond any shadow of a doubt.

  • Eat horse? how could you do that that's disgusting this video is so upsetting and it proves rth epoint HORSE SLAUGHTER IS WRONG EVEN WEHN IT IS DONE HUMANELY! if your horse is suffering dont you think it would be nicer to just peacefully inject it? that sawful what that last comment sd if my horse was suffering i would put him down but slaughter is just down right disgusting!

  • well how can Chinese eat dog? because it's part of their culture. And human has eaten horse maybe even longer than we have ridden on them. And honestly what is the difference between eating a horse and a cow? And what's disgusting is the way it's done, and people who mistreat their animals, not the people who eat animals that has been well taken care off.

  • yeah and then if u have to eat it witch i don't know how someone could then do it but don't kill it if it is a perfectly good horse

  • I never said you should a perfectly good healthy horse. But horses do get seriously sick or injured, then it's better to put them down than to let them suffer.

  • yeah i know that. but people are killing perfectly good horses.

  • I know.. and I do know people who does that, but that's mainly young horses that can not be used for breeding or sports, these horses are often them that end up highly dysfunctional because they've keep being sold to new places.

  • ok horses are way more important then breeding and doing sports. so the only reason we have them is for a sport and to make more horses? if you believe that you must not have any heart towards animals. Horses are not things to be bought and sold, they are friends who can help anybody with any problem, if you are patient enough to listen. But if you still disagreee, why do i bother even trying? and why do you bother talking about it?

  • well that is how the equine industry works, if you like or not. I'm just saying how it is. And lots of these people incl. me love horses, and will do everything for them. But sometimes there are old horses who has been bought and sold so many times and no one wants them, and unfortunately there's not many places for horses like that, so they are put down. That is how the world function. Just to make it clear I'm not interested in horses for breeding or sports but as a hobby.

  • ok i am in the equestrian industry, and that is not how it works. people take wild horses, and perfectly fine horses to auctions and people from slaughter houses get them. but old horses are most of the time taken in as school horses or helping out with disabled children.

  • maybe in the US, but not in Europe.

  • yeah thats because in Europe, they eat horses. not in the U.S

  • so you believe that out of 300 million people no ones eating horse? isn't that a bit naive? Maybe it's not normal to eat horse in US, but surely doesn't mean no ones eating horse. And it really depends where you're from in Europe if they eat horse or not, in Denmark it's not normal to eat horse, but it's quite normal in Italy.

  • no i dont believe out of 300 million people no one is eating horse. i know that there are probably not as many people eating horse in the u.s then there are in places in europe but people shouldnt eat a horse that was perfectly capable of so many things. its breaks my heart to see something like that to happen.

  • I'm in animals rescue, and yer right: Beautiful, healthy horses get sent to slaughterhouses on the ragulsr basis. Yeah, I seen Mustangs at auctions, fresh of the prairie, and nobody wants a "wild, dangerous animal." Once a Mustang was bleeding down it's face and nobody did a thing about it, even when I told them about it. Luckily, that killer-buyer was a few peenies shy to outbid me. >:D

    PS: no PS

  • ha ha. nice

  • I don't understand why they capture wild horses just to sell them for slaughter. That is just stupid. Don't you have any laws against it? something that protect the horses? I know in Denmark we had problems with horses being send to Italy to be slaughter, they drove all the way packed in lorries with no ventilation, no stops and no water. But the government have but a stop to it.

  • They don't catch them just for slaughter, but some to get sent to meat packers, and I hate it.

    O.<

    PS: no PS
