A Horses' Prayer
​​A young warrior and his trusted companion connecting their spirits as one as they prepare to go into battle. 
The spirit of those sacred horses lives on in horses today. 
A warrior and his horse depended upon each other going into battle, his horse gave the warrior the ability to be swift in battle or a buffalo hunt.  
Painting his horse was a sacred act and believed to enhance power for both horse and rider...
a red ring around the horse’s eye gave the horse alert vision in battle.

THEIR LAST RIDE - the final journey OFFICIAL TRAILER 
CALL TO ACTION ...to help protect wild and domestic horses from slaughter.
 THEIR LAST RIDE - the final journey PSA 
Serving as public service announcement, educating and bringing awareness to horse slaughter, 
 encouraging audiences to contact their representative and ask that they co-sponsor  this important legislation, the SAFE Act H.R. 3355,  that will close our borders to horse slaughter. 
 

THE TRUTH - facts pro horse slaughter advocates do not want you to know. 
HORSE SLAUGHTER IS BIG BUSINESS
Every year tens of thousands wild and domestic horses are hauled across our borders to Canada and Mexico for slaughter to satisfy the demand for horse meat in foreign countries.  Once a horse is tagged for slaughter, they become a commodity and their only value is "cents per pound".  If they are rejected for slaughter, they then become a liability and are treated as such...​ often left to die, no food, no water, or any form of humane euthanasia.

Loading into Mexico transport trucks ...for transport across the Texas/Mexico border to the Mexico slaughter house. 

​​Horses tagged for slaughter are often referred to as ​"killer horses" ​by those in the horse slaughter business.  ​
During a public meeting, when complaining to the Presidio City Council about the increase in fees to dump dead horses at the city landfill, an export pen owner stated... ​"killer horses are the junk that nobody wants".
NO HORSE ...is the junk that nobody wants!

Gareth Laffely on the important role we play in protecting Wild Horses. 

HOW TO HELP THE HORSES
On May 19, 2021, the Save America’s Forgotten Equines (SAFE) Act H.R. 3355 was introduced in the 
 117th Congress. 
Sponsored by Representatives Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill.) and Vern Buchanan (R-Fla.), this important legislation will prevent the horse slaughter industry from re-establishing operations in the U.S. and prohibit
 the export of US horses for slaughter in Canada and Mexico.

Please take action, contact your representatives and urge them to co-sponsor the ...
SAFE Act H.R. 3355
