[QUOTE="cow pollinater, post: 979850, member: 14661"] They're not all pets. I've been around more than a few that were good at their job but so misserable to be around that nobody minded seeing them go when the time came. I can understand a special horse that was good to a particular family getting a "forever home" with that same particular family, but the rest of them are livestock... That doesn't mean that you can't be kind to them while they're here, it just means that thier life is conditional on usefulness. If every ranch had to keep every horse until it died of natural causes, the price of beef would make it an unafordable luxury item because half of our resources would go to horses instead of cattle.
