Horses Being Found Butchered in South Florida.   email this discussion to a friend?

Since January nearly 20, 17 in Miami-Dade County alone, horses reported stolen have been found tied to trees and butchered for their meat. These horses were beloved pets, not livestock.

I realize that in some countries it is legal to buy and sell horse meat, but in the US this isn't the case. What is it like in your country? How do you feel about the black market buying and selling of stolen horse meat in America?

Is meat worth so much to make it an economical venture to butcher a stolen horse for? I mean, we're hardly facing some kind of meat-crisis here. You can get ground chuck for like 2.50 a pound...seems better than--you know--committing crimes.

The article I read says that it goes for up to $20/lb. on the black market, so I'm guessing it's going to people who can't obtain it legally, but still desire the meat.

Here in California it's a felony to be caught consuming horse meat. I can't imagine being so into eating horses that you'd risk that, ya know?
