Saratoga Springs, N.Y. – Please see the next assertion from PETA Senior Vice President Kathy Guillermo and the video concerning the demise on Saturday of New York Thunder within the ninth race. Nobel died after the fifth race. New York Thunder is the 14th horse to die at Saratoga Race Course throughout this season:
We wish everybody to see the second grotesque killing at Saratoga Race Course on Travers Day. PETA was filming on the monitor and captured New York Thunder’s shattered bone and his horrifying try to run, his decrease leg dangling. Officers obtained the display screen up shortly to dam the general public’s view, however not earlier than everybody on the monitor noticed the carnage. Everybody who sees this video will agree that racing should not be allowed to proceed at Saratoga.
PETA—whose motto reads, partly, that “animals should not ours to make use of for leisure or abuse in some other method”—opposes speciesism, a human-supremacist worldview. For extra data, please go to PETA.org or observe the group on Twitter, Fb, or Instagram.
