Will you please help stop the unnecessary slaughter of innocent mares and foals by the Wyeth Drug Company?
TritanBear asked:
Each year hundreds of innocent mares and foals are slaughter unnecessarily by The Wyeth Drug Company. The company manfactures the drug Premarin which is used as a hormone therapy in women. Premarin is a pill made from pregant mare urine. The company funds ranches to have these mare kept pregant to get their urine, The mares are kept in awful and inhumane conditions. Once the foals are born they are no use to the company so they are slaughtered along with the mares that can no longer make their quota. There are other alternatives to this drug that work the same, and the company’s practice is unnecessary and cruel. Please help and sign the petition to end this cruel practice. Go to www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction and look for PMU Mares and foals, its under animal welfare. Please help.
You can also sign a petition from Virginia Snowdeny at www.petitiononline.com/xe3/

ok, i’m all for it. Total animal lover
Of course. This has been an ongoing fight between horse advocates and drug companies. (I used to do horse rescue and have worked with people who adopted/saved PMU foals so this topic is nothing new to me) In fact, I think this is a great time to address this problem in particular especially with the anti-horse slaughter bills that are currently on in the House and the Senate. If the momentum and awareness that has been created by this issue (slaughter) can be also used to fight this form of equine injustice we could potentially have a win win situation. I say go for it.
side note:(As for those who think this is all fun and games i.e. “I need a hamburger.” You should watch a horse slaughter video and see how hungry you are then.)
i am a horse owner and vet nurse i cannot abide animal cruelty and i am campainig at the moment to stop animal cruelty in labs people like you and i who ask these things open peoples eyes to what is going on i hope lots of people sign the petition and put an end to this well done for bringing it to peoples attention
YES
how can i help?
i want to shut down ALLLLL slaughterhouses!!
i HATE those things and people. and u kno how they take the mustangs from the wild, they sell the ones people dont buy to the slaughterhouse!
If you are a horse owner or would like to be one you can help save some of the PMU foals by adoping them.
There are farms that go up to Canada and pick up the foals and bring them to the US for sale. Many are adopted and go on to be wonderful riding horses.
If you can adopt one.
If you can not do not support the Premarin industry by taking this drug there are alternative remedies.
Already done. I am a 51 year old woman just starting the menopause and I have already told my doctor that under NO circumstances will I be using any kind of hormone replacement therapy becuase of how premarin is produced.
Done- I’m not in America and I wonder if this happens in Australia too. It’s heartbreaking. Horses offer us soooo much, even if you aren’t an animal lover, and to think they are being abused, not just physically, but in every other sense. It’s tragic.
OF COURSE I WILL BUT I CANT FIND IT SEND NE AN EMAIL AT
