Does anyone unfamiliar with horses and their care realize the amount of over the counter medications available to the average horse owner with which they can medicate their horses to keep them healthy and sound? The varieties of medications that read “Not For Use in Animals Used For Human Consumption”?? Is anyone familiar with the variety of parasite/dewormer medications that a horse is fed throughout it’s lifetime to rid it’s gut of damaging worms/parasites? Why would anyone even risk consuming horsemeat in a country where horses aren’t raised for consumption, they are basically companion animals? As a horse owner, there is no way I would ever feed horsemeat to another animal let alone a human! Yuck!
“As a horse owner, there is no way I would ever feed horsemeat to another animal let alone a human!”
Nor would I, but that’s my choice. If someone else wants to eat it, that’s their choice. I don’t smoke either but I sure don’t give a rats ass if someone else does it. Zoos feed horsemeat to tigers and lions, do you think horse slaughter for the zoo market should be banned?
