Petition: Protect Florida’s Horses from Brutal Slaughter

Horses in Florida are being subjected to unimaginable cruelty—tendons slashed, vocal cords severed, and even burned alive. This isn’t just animal abuse; it’s organized crime fueled by the illegal horse meat trade. Gaps in law enforcement and poor coordination between agencies have allowed these atrocities to continue unchecked.

We demand that Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody:

  1. Enforce harsher penalties for horse killers to ensure justice.
  2. Improve coordination between state and local law enforcement to close jurisdictional gaps.
  3. Launch an emergency crackdown on the illegal horse meat trade to stop this cruelty now.

Every year, thousands of horses disappear, and too many are found brutally tortured and killed. Despite hard evidence and leads, law enforcement fails to act decisively, allowing criminals to evade justice.

The peak season for horse killings is now, and immediate action is critical. We need a statewide mandate to ensure law enforcement agencies work together to end this crisis and punish offenders severely.

Florida’s horses are suffering.

Stand with us to demand justice and ensure their protection. Sign this petition today—because no horse deserves this fate.
