Floridians, guard your horses!

1st Calv at Ft Hood, TX



I came across an article today and I would like to share this with the equestrian community.

In connection with the ongoing discussion about horse-slaughter, this is just another "bad" piece of the puzzle for equestrian communities to fit in the "big picture".

As mentioned before: Banning horse-slaughter by governmental means is not the solution. But educating communities about the pro's and con's of humane horse-slaughter, offering alternative solutions to those in need of services within local areas might open a pathway for a better future.

Read this article and share your thoughts about it with us.




Horsemeat should not become a "black-market-item" and it should not be a crime to bring a suffering horse to a local butcher whom one knows and trusts.


So, equestrians of Florida, guard your horses and make your voices heared! Be on the lookout for these butchers and turn them over to the police.
