Abandoned horses in Ireland | Video of the day
  • 14 years ago
Before the economic downturn, many people in Ireland purchased expensive horses. But after the financial crisis hit, many horse owners could no longer afford to care for them. As a result, an estimated 20,000 horses have been set free. They can be seen roaming highways, housing developments, parks and forests. Some of the horses are on the brink of starvation - and animal rights advocates are trying to save them.
