I had a brilliant day with my horses, watching them play, frolic in the dam and race through their own free rodeos at dusk and dawn!
Some of them are "rideable" and "useable" within the strict constraints of my mutually co-operative ethic.
Sadly, some of them are old and arthritic, but having served people all their lives, they're still contented, eating well... and teaching younger horses how to behave, with mutual respect, around humans!
Should I be sending the old ones away for pet food or human food? And is this cannabilism?
I think that it is.............. feel free to disagree?

I don't think it's cannibalism for a carnivore/omnivore to eat a herbivore - it's the nature of things. What bothers me is the often inhumane way in which animals are raised and slaughtered for mass consumption - that must change.
Sorry Jenny, Google got confused with my sign-in handle. maltena is me, Mary. Yoohoo...!
I agree Mary. I don't mind animals being eaten as long as they have enjoyed quality of life and a compassionate end. (What more could we ask for than that, even as humans?)
