The surrey horses in Nassau have been basically left to fend for themselves. They don't have proper food, shelter nor medical care. Their hooves are overgrown and split. They're lame. They are malnourished and ABUSED on a daily basis --- yet, made to work in the most horrendous conditions - in the middle of traffic congestion, breathing in fumes from cars and buses. The temperature goes up to over 90 degrees in the summer and they are made to work continuously. Their water troughs are too small and often empty due to broken pipes. To see them struggling with carriages laden with tourists is enough to break your heart. This has to stop. We cannot condone animal abuse. These horses are NOT A TOURISM PRODUCT - THEY LIVE AND FEEL. End this now!
