Mother and Baby Scheduled to be Shipped for Slaughter
|
This healthy young mother with her sweet baby girl got caught up in the tragic world of the equine slaughter industry* when they were purchased by a kill buyer at an auction house in Colorado. Thankfully, our network of rescuers paid the ransom to get them off the slaughter truck with the help of the Colorado Slaughter Bound Horse Rescue. And our amazing sanctuary supports raised the money to transport Mama and Baby to The Farm Way. They are safe now.
We put together a little video to share with you.... |
The Farm Way has been successful in providing a safe-haven for many beautiful horses because of all of you. This little girl is our first baby. Your support is vital in making our mission to succeed for her and her mother. Thank you.
*Equine Slaughter is the practice of slaughtering horses to produce meat for consumption.
The USDA documented that 92.3 percent of horses sent to slaughter are in good condition and are able to live out a productive life.
These horses would be sold, donated or otherwise rehomed; however, kill buyers outbid legitimate horse owners and rescues at auctions,
robbing horses of ever having a second chance at life. ~Humane Society USA
