A Ground-breaking Victory in the Crusade Against Horse Export We've achieved a landmark victory in the struggle for animal rights with the closure of the Bouvry Exports Prime Feedlot in Alberta, Canada. This facility, a central figure in the horse export industry from the United States to Canada, has been permanently shut down after years of scrutiny and advocacy. This accomplishment is the fruit of a decade's worth of unwavering dedication by Tracks Investigations, along with our partners in the sphere of animal welfare. Through our collective effort, we've brought to light the severe mistreatment and dire conditions endured by horses at what was Canada’s largest horse slaughterhouse. Our collaborative efforts, alongside Animals Angels USA and the Animal Welfare Foundation, have unveiled a harrowing reality: overcrowded conditions, sick and injured horses without access to shelter, and the heart-wrenching presence of deceased animals. These revelations led to a pivotal legal action by the Canadian Organization Animal Justice last year, demanding a thorough examination of Bouvry Exports for breaches of animal welfare laws—an effort that proved critical in the shutdown of this facility. The closing of the Bouvry Exports Prime Feedlot represents a significant turning point in the North American horse export industry. It's a testament to what can be achieved with tenacious advocacy, investigative journalism, and the collective will to champion the cause of justice, even in the face of daunting challenges. #AnimalRights #VictoryForHorses #EndHorseExport #AnimalAdvocacy #InvestigativeJournalism #AnimalWelfare
