Banning Horse Slaughter Horsemeat has been discovered in the U.S food supply, and is dumped on the dinner plates of unsuspecting consumers. Not only do Americans overwhelmingly oppose slaughtering horses, but horses are not raised for food and over the course of their lives they receive a wide variety of drugs and other substances that make their meat tainted. Being sold for slaughter is one of the many challenges horse’s face to merely live their lives free of abuse and suffering. Hope can be found
Is Riding Saddleseat Cruel to the Horse? Have you ever seen an elegant horse, moving so gracefully while performing? If you have, you have probably been watching a Saddleseat event. For those of you who have not heard of this event, it is an English style of horseback riding which is designed to show off certain traits of the horse such as the walk, trot, and canter. The horses in the event seem very dignified while performing, but how do these horses look so elegant while also looking in so
Modern Day Consumption of Horse Meat Most Americans today oppose the slaughter and consumption of horses because horses are seen as companionship animals, the horse slaughter industry is especially cruel, dislike for the gamey taste of horse meat, and there are many unsafe chemicals in the meat of horses that were cared for as pets or property. Contrary to widespread opposition, humans have consumed horse meat for thousands of years, whether it be for necessity or enjoyment of it as a delicacy.
Shannon’s friend: https://youtu.be/OSE3DlQhz5g BLM on Today: https://youtu.be/VQvNFE95RhY Today, there are more wild horses being “held” in facilities than currently in the wild.

These slaughterhouses will slaughter any horse, from foals to old horses to ponies and donkeys and even pregnant mares, if they are shipped to slaughter they are slaughtered.

Is a horse considered a man’s best friend? Horses have been by our side for over six thousand years helping us and companioning our long days of evolution and work. They have most definitely become as close to us humans as any other pet would be. Other countries, however, don’t appreciate the strong bond that we have built for so long. Foreign countries have come to believe that horse’s meat is tender and delicious enough to serve on their plates! Just last year, over 135,000 horses were slaughtered
Athletics. In the 1950’s, Harry De Leyer and his new bride Joan De Leyer immigrated to the United States after the Nazis left his small town in the Netherlands in economic despair. All he was armed with was a gift and love for horses. Yet, after buying a neglected mutt of a horse in desperate need of some tender loving care, Harry De Leyer jumps over the competition and rises to the top of the show jumping world. In The Eighty-Dollar Champion, Elizabeth Letts uses pathos, ethos, and logos to tell the
Victor Frankenstein has made a beast, a "despised fiend" (Shelley 90) who torments him all through Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. For sure, the animal confers a few loathsome acts, which drives Frankenstein to seek after him into the Arctic. However the animal does not rouse a similar dread or repugnance in the peruser; rather he earns sensitivity. While Frankenstein may can't help disagreeing, the peruser associates with the creature since he is disengaged from the world and-shockingly has a delicate
Thousands of healthy equines are sent to the slaughterhouse every year. Most of these horses can be rehomed. Horses are being slaughtered in increasing numbers and incredibly cruel ways. Many people don’t know much about equine slaughter, my goal is to inform them and make a difference even if it is small. I have two off-the-track thoroughbreds that could have gone to the slaughterhouse if we didn’t give them homes. Instead of abandoning and slaughtering equines, individuals should rehome or rescue

Farm animal welfare refers to the state, living condition, and treatment, animals are but under in farms. Cruel animal welfare has spread throughout the world killing millions of animals in inhumane ways.

Starting a Horse Under Saddle before the Age of Three Starting horses under saddle have been a question many people and trainers have asked for years. There are many benefits to starting a horse before the age of three, but greater drawbacks as well. A horse at the age of three is not skeletally mature enough to carry the weight of a human without major side effects. The growth plates in the vertebrae and in the knees of horses have not yet completely fused (Franz, et al 1). Starting a horse after the

THOMAS HOBBES AND THE SOVEREIGN’S POWER In this essay, focusing on Thomas Hobbes’s book ‘’Leviathan’’, mainly on the chapters 13 and 14, I’m going to analyse the fact that Hobbes gives the sovereign an absolute power authorizing it to provide the society with security essential to their liberty. Thomas Hobbes is certainly one of the most controversial and frequently contested political philosophers of modern times; he left a significant mark on modern understanding of human nature, political theories
I Love Rodeos I love to go to rodeos. I fell in love with rodeos at a very young age. I remember watching the horses trot around the arena. I would sit in the front row and admire the beauty of the horses. I love the atmosphere that rodeos have, it is indescribable. There is so much going on, from the sounds of all the animals, to the laughter of the crowd. As I got older the love for rodeos increased. Now, that I was older I started to pay attention to how I dressed. I loved to get dressed in
The Horse in Art The horse has been a subject in art since the cave paintings of prehistoric man and has remained so until the present day, largely due to the royal connection with horses and the preoccupation with equine sport, particularly racing. Over the years, the role of the horse in the picture, the style, technique and function of the picture have altered dramatically. These changes can be traced in the work of three artists: George Stubbs, John Frederick Herring Snr. and Sir Alfred Munnings
"The Wild Horses of Assateague Island" & "Wild Ponies of Chincoteague" & "In Thunder and Rain, Chincoteague Ponies Make Annual Swim" Opener In this poem, I am going to show you more about the ponies by the illustrations. For example, in "The Wild Horses of Assateague Island" the illustration of the herd of horses on the beach shows that the horses were survivors of a shipwreck off the Virginia Coast. Another example in "Wild Ponies of Chincoteague" the illustration of the people on the boats and
I set up and cried for about an hour wondering why I wasn 't dead too.

barrel racing it’s so easy all you do is go out there and run around metal barrels. Being a barrel racer is more than getting on a horse and going out into the arena and running around some metal barrels. To be a barrel racer it takes guts, determination, strength, agility, trust and a lot of patience. Barrel racing is all about the bond and trust you have with your horse because without that, you will never have a successful barrel racing career and you can get hurt. For the people who don’t know what
