[QUOTE="rngr, post: 152582, member: 2626"] The killler market is a thing of the past (for now). Can't remember the bill that was passed but basically it cut the funding for USDA to inspect the horse meat that is shipped overseas for consumption. In effect it made the kill market go away. Can't ship them to Mexico either. Next year there is a bill to be brought up that will permanently make the kill market no longer. Good thing or bad thing? Depends on who you are and what your selling. For older horses or ones that nobody wants it may be an inhumane thing because I can see alot of owners putting the horse out to pasture and letting it survive on its own basically. If it gets sick nature will run its course. I can see alot of horses living a very horrible life unfortunately. [/QUOTE]
