Yesterday at Saratoga, 2-year-old Catchy "suffered a catastrophic injury to her left foreleg and fell after the wire then was euthanized on track.” This was her first and only race, and her demise marks 17 deaths at Saratoga Race Course thus far this summer. Horseracing is animal cruelty. 🚫🏇

Baytown Vegas was only 2 years old when he was killed at Turfway Park on April 12th. His necropsy report tells the story of his suffering:

“Horse was galloping when it went down on the track: complete, comminuted fracture of the scapula; large amount of hemorrhage.”
“Stomach ulceration.”
“The presence of a preexisting periosteal callus associated with the acute fracture line in this case is consistent with a repetitive stress injury leading to a catastrophic musculoskeletal failure. A similar callus is noted on the contralateral limb.”

“Repetitive stress” — on a horse who had just turned two and was being prepped for his very first race.

He is one of 21 horses killed at Kentucky tracks this year alone. This is not sport — this is animal cruelty. 🚫🏇

TAKE ACTION: Nearly half of all National Wildlife Refuge System (NWRS) lands allow the use of steel-jaw leghold and other body-gripping traps, which aren’t selective about who they catch and inflict prolonged agony on wildlife, pets, and people caught in their grip. Please ask your US representative to cosponsor the Refuge from Cruel Trapping Act (H.R. 4108), legislation to remove these traps from the NWRS, with limited exceptions: https://www.congressweb.com/AWI/531?framed_parent_url_id=5F577FB3-5056-86BC-D9754A52E4DFBD1E

If horseracing is a sport, then that word must be redefined. In what other sport are the athletes:

kept in intensive, solitary confinement for over 23 hours a day?

led around by lip chains and controlled with metal bits?

whipped – beaten – for motivation?

routinely dying on the playing field?

Over 1,800 horses are killed at US tracks every year. Horseracing is no sport; it is animal cruelty. 🚫🏇

🚨URGENT: A new version of the EATS Act has been introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives, now called the Save Our Bacon Act (H.R. 4673). If enacted, it would erase some of the most important farmed animal protections of the past decade.

Please take action today to urge your lawmakers to oppose this harmful bill! ➡ https://aldf.org/article/urgent-action-rebranded-eats-act/

Governor Kathy Hochul has signed the Bill into Law. Anyone who thinks New York State is "progressive", rest assured the hunting cult is alive & well in NY.
