Wyoming Officials Back Slaughter of Western Horses for Meat
Sidney E. Bartlett with Gov. Frank L. Noux and Dean H. G. Knight advocate slaughtering undersized western horses for food to aid Wyoming horse owners and help France with horse meat during wartime. Bartlett claims millions of U S horses are more valuable as food than for other use and that slaughter would curb low quality stock and push breeders toward better horses.
