[RC] Horse Welfare Committe Article - KarenI have just mailed a letter to the editor regarding the article from the Welfare Committee. The long and the short of it, and which you can read hopefully in the next issue is that they had better do a better job in defining what constitutes a horse death as a result of endurance riding. Beetle poisoning as a result of endurance riding, I don't think so. Am I glad I'm not on that committee! First, people complain that we aren't documenting why horses are dying and including all of the ones that die. Then, when they do (and show us that they aren't all really caused by endurance riding), people still complain! Karen in NV
