nobody knows but the numbers of unwanted horses keep increasing more and more every year.
In the US, unwanted horse populations continue to increase because there are no slaughtering facilities in country. Unfortunately, this leads to problems such as abandonment and neglect, because many horse owners do not know what to do with animals that become terminally ill or aged.
I'm not sure but I know for sure that it is illegal in the United States.
Horse slaughter is currently legal in the USA
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 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.
Two countries that are common answers are Mexico and Canada and sadly starting this month the U.S. too.
Yes, unfortunately. Many slaughterhouses sell it to other countries- for a huge profit.
they are trying to change that in the united states and the only reason it is, is because foreign countries do it horses. :(
No. It is illegal to slaughter a horse in the united states. It is a horrible thing in my eyes.
Slaughter without prestunning has been banned in Norway, Sweden and New Zealand.
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.
