    OMG!!

    HOW HORRIBLE!!

    This brought bad so many bad memories of a barn fire that killed 8 Belgium Draft horses across from my parent's house a few years back. Such thinking of the horrendous tragedies that have happened to such beautiful and majestic creatures has brought me to tears.

    To those horses that have crossed to the bridge... may you rest in peace now. I hope you've been joined with the 8 Belgiums that lost their lives on 1/18/05 in the barn fire.

    59 draft horses! That's a lot of horse for one trailer! What a horrible thing to happen. They sound young and in great shape. I wonder why they were all being sent off like that.

    If you read the articles in the link, it was assumed they were being transported to an auction. If you've ever seen one of these horses
    (they're huge), you can imagine how crowded & unsafe it was to pack
    them into a two level truck. That's the way most small animals like
    pigs or sheep are transported.
