I seem to have missed the original threads on this so am unclear on the situation - anyone kind enough to fully explain it to me please?

hi clipclop - basically horses/donkeys and mules are being transported from spain to fattening farms in france and then transported to italy for slaughter. often in terrible conditions, lorries without partitions etc, stallions, mares, mares in foal and with foal at foot etc all together.
some very nice people on here are saving some of these horses and are well aware that more horses will take their place and are campaigning with the ilph to get live transport banned.
hope this sums it up enough for you.

just to ad, its a 3 day journey to italy with no food or water, most are crushed to death upon arrival, long legged animals werent built to travel in cramped conditions, the lucky to have survived the journey ones are quite inhumanely treated then unhumanely slaughter with barely even being stunned. x
