So much absurdity.  There I nothing dignified about slaughtering horses.  Nothing.  And I'm quite sure a horse does not care if its body is "wasted" or not.   The entire slaughter process is filled with unimaginable horror for equines---from beginning to end.  A bullet to the head and burial would certainly be much kinder and caring.  That is, if you truly do love horses...  But of course, if you truly do love horses, you would look at the countless other ways, based on facts, that the wild horses can be managed on the range...and protected for generations to come.
