“One of the worst cases was a mare who had a foal. They slashed her throat, and she didn’t go down right away, so they took a metal pipe and they broke her legs. She finally went down with her foal by her side, and they started to harvest right when she hit the ground. One man sat on her head, another sat on her neck. They taped the foal’s mouth shut because she was crying out for her mother. They left with the back legs of the mare, 80 percent of her flesh, and they admitted to the Miami-Dade Police Department that while they were leaving, the mare was still trying to cry out for her foal. When I got there the next morning, the foal was trying to nurse off the mare’s carcass. That is what is going on here, and that’s why I’m not backing down.”
—Richard “Kudo” Couto, on a personal mission to end illegal horse slaughter operations in Miami, FL. Check out his website Animal Recovery Mission for more information.
