sitaangelDumb me just had to go and read the article, knowing full well it would probably upset me or put some nasty pictures in my head.
The process that awaits condemned horses in Bel Tex and Dallas Crown is not pretty.
A horse is put in a cramped pen that limits its movement. A worker then will lean over the horse and shoot a 4-inch retractable bolt into its head. Horses cannot be killed in the slaughterhouses with lethal injections because the toxic chemicals would poison the meat.
The stunned horse is picked up by a giant claw and moved down an assembly line. It is decapitated and then hung so it can be drained. The horse's beating heart pumps all of the blood out of the body. The horse then moves along the line where it is stripped of its hide and quartered.
