Re: [RC] [Guest] response to "taking care of horses when they pass" - MerrybenIn a message dated 2/27/2003 11:08:21 AM Eastern Standard Time, ridecamp-moderator@xxxxxxxxxxxxx writes: A bullet is an acceptable kill method if done correctly and nature doesn't mind taking care of the corpse (the foxes and vultures will thank you). Nor does the horse care. No flames from me. I have said many times, there are worse things that can happen to a horse [or any animal for that matter] than dying. Once they are dead they are beyond caring. Their souls, if you believe they have them, are gone. I realize that some people cannot stand the idea of their beloved pet being cut up, left to the wild animals, hauled off by the knackers, etc., however, they should not attack those of us who handle it that way. mb =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
