SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT,
A Federal Court ruling just announced that it is illegal for the USDA
to accept payments from the equine slaughterhouses for the inspection
of any equine killed for human consumption. Cavel is effectively
closed. There is a possibility of appeal, but as of this minute, the
slaughter of horses for human consumption in the United States is
over.
ATTENTION ALL RESCUES:
Habitat for Horses and the Humane Society of the United States need
your help for the possibility of the intake of the horses now caught
in the pipeline. Estimates range up to several thousand. Please email
us immediately, do not call, if your rescue is in the position to
help house and adopt these horses. We need your name, name of the
organization, location, contact numbers and a rough idea of the
actual number of horses you will be able to take in.
