A horse is shot and killed after falling in a race, Shocking.... no?

Hello friends,

Yes, You read that right! When a horse falls in a race, it is killed.

Do you know why?

Although it may seem inhuman to kill a horse that had an accident in a race by shooting or injecting it with poison but it is good for the horse.

Race horses are bred through selective breeding. The purpose of selective breeding is simply to breed faster horses.

The race horse weighs around 1000 kgs, but the legs of the horse are very thin in terms of body size. Still he manages to carry that weight, because out of 205 bones in a horse's entire body, 80 bones are in its legs. The joints, bones, ligaments, ligament's cartilage, etc. things from the horse's legs contribute to the horse's speed. But when the horse collapses, the same system becomes a curse for him.

The legs of the race horses are more tacky. So when a horse falls, its bones not only break, but literally fall to pieces. The bone undergoes plastic deformation before breaking. Plastic deformation is a permanent bend in a solid object. Even if pieces of bone are joined together, the bone will remain bent forever. So running and walking is a distant thing, a horse can't even stand up properly.

A breed horse never sits, it always stands. If the bones of the legs are broken, then the burden of the body has to be taken care along with the wounds. But in this case, there is more stress on the injured area. The horse must stand still until the wound heals. But the horse keeps moving constantly. As a result, the wound does not heal quickly and the pain increases.

The cost of caring race horse is too high. A horse can just run and earn money by betting in a race, but caring for an injured horse is an extra expense, and there is no point in feeding it if it does not run. And the unbearable pain that horses get from injuries is different. Killing relieves the horses from that pain.

If you don't want to kill horses, there is only one solution, you have to stop their race. 

But if the race is stopped, the breeding of horses will be stopped. This means that the breed of horses will become extinct, only mules will remain.

So now you know the reason...

Hope this adds to your knowledge Bank.
