Stop the use of horses in Olympic events

The Issue

In this day and age we see society moving away from using animals for competition, especially where it's possible to cause serious injury. However, in the marquee event in sports competition, the Olympics, we still see the use of horses for events such as dressage, show jumping, and even modern pentathlon. Please sign this petition to let the IOC know that you want the Olympics to be about humans competing, not the use of animals who would be executed if they suffered a serious injury.
