Did you not see this
statement? I do think it's horribly inhumane to transport a suffering animal
anywhere before slaughtering or euthanizing it. How can that sentiment cause
trouble for innocent parties? I don't know what the answer is, but I did like
the idea of the local slaughtehouses, rather than the animal having to live in
pain while it's being transported around.

animal."

class=RTE>New Holland in Lancaster, PA does NOT slaughter the horses. They
sell them to killers if no one buys them. They are loaded onto appropriate
transport vehicles and taken out. </DIV> <DIV

like the previous post by Sherman - Kathy, can cause a lot of trouble for
innocent people. I've seen the "bad" cases at New Holland but that's
where they're supposed to go.
