WARNING: GRAPHIC IMAGES!
Horse slaughter and animal cruelty at its worst. Go inside the largest
illegal livestock market in Mexico, Mercado San Bernabe. This hidden
camera video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bjuVa...
reveals extreme animal cruelty, inhumane horse slaughter, and shows
what happens to horses and other animals before they go to the
slaughterhouse. The graphic images shown in this video proves to be one
of the most shameful examples of horse slaughter, animal cruelty, animal
abuse and animal neglect ever seen.
This is not just about extremely inhumane horse slaughter, seen for sale on site are animal cruelty to donkeys, animal cruelty to horses, animal cruelty to mules, animal cruelty to dogs and wildlife, and whose origins are uncertain and many of the animal cruelty victims are visibly sick, arrive and depart transported in sadistic and deplorable conditions with exposed fractures, bleeding open wounds and ulcers. Other animal cruelty victims are hung with ropes, when they no longer have the strength to stand upright. These suffering "animal waste" are kept alive just because a kilo of live meat costs twice that of a dead one. If an animal finally ends its agony and dies it is cut open right there and its viscera is extracted and thrown on the ground in the middle of the market.
There is no animal health control. Animals are sold directly for two purposes either privately as live animals (for work or food) or to a slaughterhouse (called the "rastro"). Obviously, the sale of live animals is done in less cruel way than that of animals that are sold to the rastro, since the horses going to the slaughterhouse are considered waste and therefore are treated in a very brutal manner, they are kicked, poked with electric barbs that are prohibited for horses. Bats and pipes are used to hit animals, they are tied with ropes. Animals suffer fractures or they fall dead, others arrive with broken limbs because the owners want to get some extra money by selling them and the animals are forced to walk down to the transport truck in these conditions. In the best case, the animals are transported sick, infected with tumors or open wounds, and later sold to the highest bidder.
Water troughs often don't contain water, the pens are underutilized -- some are overcrowded, others are empty. There is a shed that was scheduled to install a sacrifice room for broken or injured animals that cannot continue the trip. It is important to mention that it is a living sacrifice room and not a slaughterhouse, and has created problems of assessment with the authorities i.e. the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, Rural Development, Fisheries and Food (SAGARPA) because they do not accept the installation of a slaughterhouse, in the absence of the necessary infrastructure to do so.
