Horse slaughter is the practice of bringing horses to factories to be killed for dog food, glue, and even human consumption. Horses are brought from auctions, the wild, race tracks, and even perfectly fine homes and brought into a trailer.
Horse slaughter is no more or less cruel than the slaughter of any other food animal.
In Mexico, the horses are led one by one into chutes where they have no room to move and they are stabbed with knives to the death in their neck.
most slaughter, the horses are chained by one leg (totally conscious) and hoisted into the air. Then their throat is slit and they bleed to their death for a good 15 minutes before dying.
In Australia, it's a bullet to the head in a room or in their stalls.
It is used for meat.
its used because some humans feel bad about themselves so they kill things better then them.
Horse slaughter is currently legal in the USA
No. It is illegal to slaughter a horse in the united states. It is a horrible thing in my eyes.
Yes, pro does mean that you are for. If you are against something it would be anti or con.
Horse slaughter plants no longer in use in the US but still in Canada and Mexico as far as i know
I'm not sure. But just for the record, I love your question! If I were a celebrity, I would be, too. My favorite part of the question is how you said "Mexican" instead of just horse slaughter. I am against Mexican horse slaughter, but I support humane slaughter in the US. So I call myself a slaughter-supporter, because I support horse slaughter here in the US. Sorry if this didn't help. Thanks, Jaybrianna.
A horse slaughter plant is a place where mean people kill healthy, old, or injured horses for food or money.THEY_ARE_SO_CRUEL!">THEY ARE SO CRUEL!Horse slaughter is not illegal, although it should be. A lot of people are against horse slaughter, including me.Sometimes good people save the horses by adopting them so they can have a great life. If they don't get adopted..... I think you would know what happens to them.@the guy above:I am against horse slaughter too.
Yes, It has been banned to Slaughter Horses in the U.S
Since 2006 after Congress banned horse slaughter in the United States all horse slaughter plants have closed. But these horses that were once killed in the US are now shipped to other countries such as Mexico.
Horse slaughter is illegal everywhere in America, unless you immediately package and export the meat outside the country.
Yes it was!
I personnally HATE Horse Slaughter! I am a HUGE Horse Lover and wish I could beat (or kill) all the people who intend to kill a horse. But... other people dont think the way I do. People slaughter horses because.... 1. They may think the horse is useless. 2. They get money from the meat. 3. It was old. 4. It injured somone. And the worse one yet..... 5. For no reason. Help the World Stop The Slaughter!
Horse and pony slaughter, referred to only as horse slaughter is when horses are slaughtered for human or animal consumption. In some countries horse meat is considered a delicacy and so horses are eaten. Some countries also allow horses to be processed and made into pet food.
