i would have thought they'd find more natural ways to feed than to patronize a horse slaughterhouse. but, true, a lot of zoos aren't exactly the epitome of animal wellfare. of course, there are some very conscientious zoos and handlers out there, but there are also plenty of low budget animal showcases.
breton, that's an interesting point. i would hope farmers would, yknow, stop raising horses for slaughter and move on to something else. cattle, maybe? not that i'm glad to see cattle slaughterhouses either, but that's a trade that isn't going to be going anywhere anytime soon, so it'd at least be reliable work for them.
