Warning, sensitive, etc. I know there are people who think it is better for animals not to "go to waste" when they can provide food /someone can be eating them , or can go as pet food. Its a big NO NO NO , from me. I do not support this for horses, anywhere in the world. Nor giving them new identities and/and shipping them off to mexico, other foreign slaghterhouses, etc or across any nation at all. All horses need to be Humanely Euthanized. They are not livestock. The mistreatment and cruelty they often face at end of their lives is what happens at feedlots and abatoirs. We who love horses, do not wish this for them. Here, there, or anywhere on the planet. And certainly not from the racing or horse sports where humans have made money on them. We understand that not every horse will find a home or safe landing. HUMANE EUTHANIZING is the only way to protect them from a possible hellish ending. Whenever you do have an opportunity to speak out against their slaughter, whether here or elsewhere, please do so. Humane euthanizing is not prohitively expensive. Rte documentary, yes they have these problems over the pond, too. DO NOT WATCH IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO SEE BAD THINGS.
BBC has done similar documentaries, all hard to watch. this one just came out and is similar. There are some big names involved but it is the regulators who are not doing their jobs. about.rte.ie/2024/06/12/footage-of-cruelty-and-abuse-of-horses-in-kildare-revealed-by-rte-investigates/The documentary www.rte.ie/player/movie/rt%C3%A9-investigates-horses-making-a-killing-s1-e1/525555751982

P.s. i cant fix the situations for all animals but as a member of the horse racing community, I feel I CAN advocate for horses.
Temple Grandin, the genius autistic had revolutionized the slaughter of cattle into a much more humane and thoughtful practice, and which was adopted, and for which I am grateful.
There is never a downside to speaking out for those who have no voice or agency.
