I think this is terrible, no heart to drag a dead horse off the street by a truck, says it all about the ahamas and how they treat their animals. I am down town every day and watch these poor horse, the way they are treat, it breaks my heart, why doesnt the government do something...oh they dont have a heart too!!!!!

This is absolutely disgusting. I recently visited the Bahamas and while I love the islands what left the biggest impression was how horribly too many of the animals are treated. There is no excuse for cats, dogs and horses to suffer the way they do in what is supposes to be civilized society. I wish tourists would refuse to ride in carriages pulled by these poor horses.

The disgust is NOT in the fact that the 'man' drug this horse off the street....the horse was dead and no longer in pain. The disgust in this IS the fact that this horse is obviously grossly underweight! I was fortunate enough to live in Nassau and meet some wonderful people and make life long friends. But I was and am STILL disgusted at the way the Bahamas treats its animals. This horse went to work day in and day out without a voice, entrusting in her owner to feed her adequately, water her adequately, and provide adequate rest and shelter. After all....it's all she deserved for putting money in this 'mans' pocket, rum in his belly and food on his table. DISGUSTING!! THIS HAS TO STOP!! A DAMN DISGRACE AND EMBARRASMENT FOR THE COUNTRY.

I totally agree. Unfortunately, The Bahamas as well as many other nations have a long way to go. That is not to say that things can't be changed for the better if the will exists to change them.

The fact of the matter is that there are policies in place whereby the horses are not to be worked between certain hours - this is flagrantly disobeyed. We as a nation should be ashamed of our treatment of animals.
Chuck's quote is spot on -
