Billed as a cultural tradition specific to indigenous communities, horse fighting, despite being illegal, is prominent enough to warrant local television coverage, and municipal support in the form of cash prizes and sponsorship from local businesses. While horse fighting is promoted under the guise of tradition, in reality, extensive gambling on the outcomes of the horse fights, with bets running as high as £2000, is the main reason it is prevalent. Horse fights entail two stallions that are incited to fight each other over a mare in season. They bite, kick and strike each other with their hooves, inflicting serious injuries until one of them submits, flees or is killed. Gouges, gashes and broken limbs sustained during fights are always serious and can be fatal. Providing veterinary care for horses, educational initiatives, enforcement and the pursuit of improved legislation are some of the areas in which Network for Animals is working to eradicate this brutal practice. ✦The Fight to End Horse Abuse! One of the most disturbing things about these images is the crowd of sadists (and children who are too young to know any better) who look on and smile — as if they were at a football game rather than a ritual torture.” says PETA. PETA Asia Pacific is working to raise awareness about this hideous blood sport, and will continue to fight the ludicrous notion that ‘tradition’ can justify torture in this or any circumstance. Whether they died of natural causes or those inflicted upon them by humans, they still suffered a great deal. ✦More than 94,000 horses go to slaughter each year, strictly for human consumption. Over 1 million suffer from Neglect. ✦✦Use your voice, stop cruelty, slaughter and neglect today ! please sign the petitions! ✦WATCH THESE VIDEOS HERE: ►play.kendincos.us/115619/Whlnrvzhltxtxptlp-illegal-horse-fighting-in-philippines.html ►youtu.be/WZLdDh_dqmQ (Philippine) ►youtu.be/ZbI2o3QYGjo (Philippine) ►youtu.be/7w0Q-JS9RME (S.Korea) ✦WATCH THE PICTURES HERE: ►lifeinthefastlane.ca/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/horse_fighting_7sfw.jpg ►https://fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/185739_184416274932994_626962_n.jpg ►networkforanimals.org/images/sized/uploads/banners/horses_5_600_x_280-600x280.jpg ►networkforanimals.org/images/sized/uploads/banners/horses_1_600_x_280-600x280.jpg ►networkforanimals.org/images/sized/uploads/banners/horses_3_600_x_280-600x280.jpg ✦MORE PICTURES HERE: ►chinese-tools/china/travel/2008-10-16-horse-fighting.html ►theginblog/2008/02/beating-a-dead-horse-gone-literal-shocking-images-of-chinese-and-philippine-horse-fighting-equestrians-and-animal-lovers-beware/ ►abs-cbnnews/-depth/08/16/10/horsefighting-thrives-philippines-despite-ban ✦More infos here:networkforanimals.org/campaigns/horse-fighting/take-action-on-horse-fighting ✦Advice infos here:right-tourism/issues/cruel-sports/horse-fighting/ Thank you ~Tony Zadel, Copyright(©)-
