Canada for slaughter

The consumption of horse meat is not part of the American

culture

After these horses are killed, their flesh is shipped to Europe and Asia for

human consumption

They are shipped long, exhausting hours; many without food, water, or

even rest

They are crammed into tight, confined spaces and treated like

dirt

Some of the luckier ones are merely injured, while others can end up

dead
