About Kimberly

I’m a life-long horsewoman. I learned at a young age on my grandparents farm that with enough grain and baling twine, you can catch any horse. Both of my daughters share in my love of horses, especially the oldest one, who now lives in Wyoming with her two Quarter Horses and her mule (which was her college graduation present from me along with this tidbit: “This mule can teach you things about life that I can’t.”). I’m an officer and founding member of the 501(c)(3) Friends of the Lexington Mounted Police, was a founding member of the Kentucky Committee of the Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation, and am on the board of the American Horse Publications national organization of equine print and electronic media. I live on a small farm in Kentucky with my musician husband, Ben, two Miniature Horses, a Miniature Donkey (a rescue), goats, chickens, dogs, and cats. My oldest daughter has promised me a new riding horse this summer. Stay tuned.

According to ChinaDaily.com, a horse in Inner Mongolia "ran amok" in a business hall after escaping from a slaughter house, where it was due to be killed.

The report said the horse broke through the hall's glass doors and began running around the business hall, frightening three clerks working behind the counter.

Whatever happened to that horse? did they catch the poor soul and still kill him/her?  Did they decide the horse really wants to live and take her/him to a new forever home?  This article is horribly vague.. where is the rest of it? I want to know more.

I wanted to know more too. But  considering the country where this happened, I probably don't. I'm sure the poor horse was probably slaughtered anyway. Another testiment to how frightened these horses really are when meeting an end this way.
