[QUOTE="BC, post: 265847, member: 67"] Livestock producers need to become more politically involved or at least become aware of some of the agendas that animal rights groups have. The issue of horse slaughter really gets to be one of personal property rights. Why should a group be able to twist elected official's arms to determine what you or I do with our livestock. Horses are livestock not companion animals or pets. If you want to spend $150 to get a horse euthanized and another $125 to $150 to get a hole dug and the horse buried that is OK by me. Just do not expect me to want to spend my money that way. Disposal is going to be a real problem. A neighbor had a bull dozier come and bury a dead cow and cover her about 3 feet deep. The coyotes have dug down and scattered bones every where. Can you imagine what it will be like if we have to start burying every old unwanted horse? I apologize for getting long winded, but his is a burr under my saddle. [/QUOTE]
