What you are looking at are the pleading faces of a mare and her foal who were brutally slaughtered in Texas, shortly after this photo was taken.

 

Both Beltex and Dallas Crown recently issued a statement that they do not slaughter foals saying they are not taking part in the holocaust currently going on with the PMU industry horses.

 

If Cavel have their way, and re-open their horse slaughter plant in April, there will be an additional 100 horses a week butchered in Illinois to go with the 700 or so a week slaughtered in Texas.

 

Please take action against this today.

 

If you are an Illinois resident, please call your Legislator. The Illinois slaughter bill could be voted on any day.  Non-residents, please contact as many as you have time to.

 

There are still 80+ legislators who are uncommitted, or who have not given their full commitment to the passage of this legislation.

Thank you.
