Yes. Rendering plants take waste fat and bone from grocery stores, scraps from restaurants, and dead animals. They cook the meat and fat products together and grind it up. It's becomes animal feed and soap, lubricants, and glue that's used to glue furniture.

Many years ago, when horses were not able to work, they were 'rendered' and some parts like hooves and ligaments went into a boiling process to make glue. This is still done in a very limited way so some furniture restorers can use appropriate glue for old pieces of furniture.

No. Animal hooves have not been used for adhesives for quite some time now. There are superior products that don't involve killing an animal, making them more politically correct.

Can 20 years old horses still be riden?

How are horses recycled?

Its sad but most horses that are unwanted are killed and turned into glue. Their tail and mane hair are used for strings on violins. Some horses that are family pets, thankfully, usually die of old age. The family, or sometimes the vet, will bury them. Actually, they aren't turned into glue. That is the fatty waste. They are killed for the meat, which is considered a delicacy and is expensive in many counties. Also, the mane and tail hairs are used for the bow, not the strings. The strings are metal or nylon. The bow is used on violins, violas, cellos, and basses. I'm in orchestra, i should know. Horses don't have to be dead to get the hair. The hair will get loose sometimes, just like human hair. It pulls out easily, too.


Why do thoroughbred horses have the same birthday?

The Jockey Club gives all Thoroughbreds in the northern Hemisphere the birthday of January first and in the southern hemisphere the birthday of September first of their birth year to make it easier to sort the horses into races. They still have their actual birthdays written onto their registration records but they just use a general birthday to make things easier.
