Some people would consider horse riding animal abuse. First of all, some people could argue that horses should not be held captive for human use in the first place. Next, the weight of a person riding a horse is uncomfortable and unnatural for horses. Finally, when it comes to racing, many jockeys whip the horse to make them go faster, which certainly causes pain and discomfort. I honestly, don't think it is, but I don't use a whip and horses weigh hundreds of pounds. It wouldn't be uncomfortable to carry a 80 lb. person to a 600 lb. horse

Why isn't hunting considered animal abuse?

Abuse is abuse, no matter what species, and abuse has criminal consequences. Hunting for food or due to over population isn't considered animal abuse to many, and many advert their eyes to such practice. Poaching or illegal hunting is animal abuse, because of animals endangered of being extinct. If animals becomes extinct there's a disruption in the food chain, and that will cause major problems in our ecosystem. Some believe hunting is abuse, but if it were not for hunting many species would already be extinct "including humans". Depends a lot on whether the animal wasn't humanely killed while being hunted or if the animal was abusively tortured before it was killed, that would be considered animal abuse.
