AQHA Asks Congress to Support Horse Slaughter
13 years ago
There are 9.2 million horses in America. The percentage of so called "un-wanted" horses going to slaughter each year is only 1% of the total number. The is NO WAY a market can be "glutted" based on 1% of its overall volume. The "excess" numbers can easily be absorbed IF only the breeders would take SELF-RESPONSIBILITY for each life they bring into the world. Horse-slaughter is an Un-necessary evil and is used ONLY by those seeking an easy, profitable way to dispose of their "Industry Cast-Offs."

Why would it make a difference if they were wild or domestic?

The Wild Ones are drug free.....and will not be restricted under the new EU rules for 30 day quaranteen but will go directly to slaughter.
The Wild Ones aren't drug free any more. The BLM is busy contaminating all the mares with PZP - puts them permanently out of the food chain.
They also evidently give meds to injured horses and vaccinate and worm the ones they keep out. Depending on what drugs they use, this is problematic for food animals as well.
Great story you got here. I'd like to read a bit more about that theme. Thnx for posting this data.
