The past few days I've noticed the advertisements list animals, horses in particular. (Actually, horses are the only species I've seen advertised but have been told by a few others that there were dogs/cats listed.) To me, equine ads aren't that big of a concern as horses are quite expensive to raise, breed, keep, so there doesn't seem to be quite the market for them as there are puppies, kitties, etc. (I.e. to my knowledge there aren't any "foalmills" -- albeit that's putting the PMU farms aside).

I'd like to say that I realize K&P (probably) don't have control over the contents of the ads and that the ads are helping to pay for pet talk. Also, I realize that this site is not focused solely on rescue work. But --though not directly stated-- rescue work does seem to be an underpinning of the forum.

I'm curious as to everyone's thoughts on this.
