Thats a good article and very true. We have two horses now we dont know what to do with. One is going blind and cant be ridden safely, and the other is old and in bad health. I figue I have three choices:
#1- Do nothing and their health will continue to worsen and they will continue to suffer.
#2-Pay a vet $100 apiece to put them down, and a backhoe man $100 to dig a hole.
#3- Lead them to the burn pile and shoot them in the head, taking a chance on getting in trouble for cruelty to animals and not dispossing of the carcass properly.
Here is what would happen if the horse slaughter plants were open:
I would haul them to the sale barn and get a check for $500. Then I would carry my wife out to eat (helping the local economy) She would buy school clothes for the kids(helping the local economy) and so on.
