The Tragic Journey of American Horses: Slaughter, Export, and Animal Rights

In 2005, the U.S. witnessed the closure of nearly all horse slaughterhouses, leaving a devastating impact on horse welfare. By 2007, the slaughter of horses for meat shifted to countries like Mexico and Canada, raising ethical concerns about American horses, which are not intended for human consumption. The routine use of banned medications poses significant health risks. Activists highlight the urgent need for a national identification system to protect these animals. This narrative underscores the ongoing struggle between animal rights and the complexities of regulation.
