Comments

This is barbaric and outrageous and our innocent animals are being stolen and slaughtered. The slaughter of this family pony who was used to do rehab with little children and was stolen and quickly slautered by the thug who stole him. This has broken our hearts. All our horsrs are now at risk never mind the insanity of such a vile and DESPICABLE ACT OF CRUELTY. RIP LOFTY. THIS SLAUGHTER HOUSE MUST BE CLOSED DOWN IMMEDIATELY. We are a broken community today and in mourning with this Family.

I have horses, it scares me to think people will steal horses and send them to slaughter for money. It needs to be made illegal, ASAP!!

A horse is like a pet. You cant go slaughtering any type of animal just because you see fit. This horse was used for therapy. He was stolen then slaughterd. Now people have to watch thier horses incase this happens again. Who eats horse meat? I hope they can stop this amongst all the other animal killings.

This is totally despicable that these people will buy stolen horses/ ponies/ donkeys, or any other animal for slaughter. This puts all our animals at risk of death.

Cruelty and abuse and slaughtering a stolen pet Pony/horse is outrageius. Proof of ownership should be supplied. Registers too must be in place to stop this horrendous meat trade.

Stealing a pony and selling it for slaughter is criminal, buying a pony and not confirming ownership or sellers credentials is just as criminal! This pony was in good condition, utilized for therapy in children with special needs and it gets slaughtered for its meat! Disgusting!

Stealing a horse is a crime. Selling stolen goods is a crime. If there was no slaughter house for horses this would not have happened.

(Port Elizabeth, 2016-12-09)

(Port elizabeth, 2016-12-11)

#140

Strongly against the slaughter of horses to fill production needs of meat as we have plenty Abattoirs for Cattle Studs. It places all horses at risk to theft for "easy money" as slaughter houses don't ask questions and just accept the animal on arrival. (Especially unregistered / illegal slaughter houses)

(Port Elizabeth, 2016-12-11)

#146

Healthy horses should not be slaughtered. This is causing a black market for horsemeat as horsed are being stolen and sold illegally - some of these horses are peoples private property.

(Port elizabeth, 2016-12-09)

I'm signing because I have a pony and my whole world would break if she was stolen and slaughtered, horses where made to be loved and to have fun with, definitely not for meat! I hope and pray this will be stopped and that the same is done to the people that did as what they did to the poor, helpless pony!
