Equestrian / Dressage
Equestrian Eventing
Equestrian Jumping

Olympic games are stressful for horses: long flight, heat, screaming people.

Serious concerns have been raised about riding equipment to be used at the 2016 Rio Olympics, with scientists claiming nosebands and double bridles could cause unnecessary pain and suffering to horses during equestrian events.

Behind the romanticized façade of Thoroughbred horse racing is a world of injuries, drug abuse, gruesome breakdowns, and slaughter. While spectators show off their fancy outfits and sip mint juleps, horses are running for their lives.

Horses used for racing are forced to sprint—often under the threat of whips and even illegal electric-shocking devices—at speeds so fast that they frequently sustain injuries and even hemorrhage from the lungs.

 

Pushed beyond their limits, most horses are subjected to cocktails of legal and illegal drugs intended to mask injuries and artificially enhance performance. Many horses—fittingly called "bleeders" by the racing industry—will bleed from their lungs, a condition known as exercise-induced pulmonary hemorrhage. In an attempt to decrease the bleeding, many horses are given a drug called Lasix or Salix, a diuretic with performance-enhancing qualities.

After Racing, horses are often killed for human consumption or Dog food.
