I was given the number of a guy last week who buys horses here in central KY. They are kept here or sent to feedlots in TN. When they have enough for a load they are trucked to New Orleans and put on a boat. They take them 12 miles offshore, out of US water and slaughter then at sea. Process on the boat and return to shore where its shipped overseas or sold black market here. There will ALWAYS be a way around any legislation. What we need is a comprehensive euthanasia plan. In Puerto Ricotrainers can have an unwanted animal euthanized at the track for something like 15 bucks.
