Workers in South Korea Fined for Killing Horses in Front of Each Other

In the first South Korea prosecutions of their kind, a supervisor, a worker, and the Jeju Livestock Cooperative were fined for killing horses in front of each other, following PETA’s investigation into the beatings and killing of racehorses at South Korea’s largest horse slaughterhouse. In addition, the Korea Racing Authority created a retirement plan and started funding a program to reduce the number of horses going from the racetrack to the dinner table.
