This is cruel. Many animals have the temperament to enjoy working purposefully just as humans do. Dogs, horses -- many have been bred for work. Now the owners will have to dispose of their horses, carriages and stables, since the carrying costs for four to eight years would be prohibitive. It's a bitter pill -- in all likelihood the next mayor will eventually restore the famed and beloved Central Park carriages.

I hope they sue for loss of livelihood.

Lotta horse friendly places outside of the Pig Apple would be glad to have them.

Romanian horses were abandoned to starve after the EU banned horses on certain roads.

The old men who used the horses and carts to collect firewood to sell in town were no longer able to support themselves or their horses.
