The question of whether horse racing constitutes abuse is a complex and contentious issue that involves ethical, welfare, and regulatory considerations. Proponents argue that well-regulated horse racing can provide economic benefits and ensure the welfare of the animals involved. Opponents raise concerns about the physical and psychological stress placed on the horses, the risks of injury and death, and the potential for exploitation. Ultimately, the answer depends on the specific practices and standards within the industry, as well as individual perspectives on the ethics of using animals for entertainment and competition.
