WORLD WORLDWIDE CANADA - ANIMALS - care2PETITIONS - A young cow and three horses were brutally killed at this Canadian rodeo over the summer

 

Rodeos are animal torture for entertainment. They Snapped a Young Cow's Neck and Euthanized Three Horses at This Bloody Canadian Rodeo      Sign Now      Dear friends,   Imagine a community event that brings people together, only to discover it's centered around tormenting and injuring animals. As a society, we'd never allow it! But we already do. This is exactly what happens at rodeos, where "tradition" masks a over a century of cruelty in Canada.    At the Calgary Stampede in Alberta this summer, the brutality was on full display: a young cow died after having its neck twisted until it broke, and three horses were so severely injured during a race that they had to be euthanized. Rodeos brand extreme suffering for animals as entertainment as they are beaten, prodded, and forced into dangerous situations. Since 1986, at least 105 animals have died at the Calgary Stampede alone, a stark reminder of the violence these events perpetuate. Despite animal cruelty laws in Canada, rodeos seem to get a pass in the name of ticket sales and spectacle. We must act now to end this injustice. Sign the petition to demand Alberta’s lawmakers pass legislation to ban rodeos and shut down the Calgary Stampede! Thank you, Lauren Care2 Petitions Team P.S. The Calgary Stampede rodeo claimed four animal lives this year. We need to end the cruelty of rodeos now. Sign the petition.      Sign Now
