Get Yer Dead Horsemeat Here

Last December, it turns out, Congress repealed the 34-year ban on slaughtering wild mustangs for food. The reversal was tacked onto a spending bill, like so many other laws that sneak through below the radar. Ranchers are complaining that the horses eat forage needed by their cattle. And goodness knows, America doesn't eat enough beef.

The Bureau of Land Management is trying to find homes for the almost 9,000 horses expected to be killed.

Update: A bill has been introduced to reinstate the ban. You can sign a petition to support it at the link.
