End Carriage Horse Suffering in New York

When a New York City carriage horse named Smoothie heard loud drumming in Central Park, she became startled and galloped onto the sidewalk and between two poles that caught her carriage. She struggled to keep running but eventually collapsed and died. Another horse startled by the noise ran into the street and collided with a car.

Carriage horses in New York City ache and wear down their hooves hauling 1200 pound carriages in the bitter cold and sweltering heat, constantly inhaling toxic car exhaust. They suffer from exhaustion because at night, they can't lie down comfortably in their tiny, feces-filled stalls.

Additionally, horses cause traffic jams and accidents, and congest an already crowded part of the city.

Horses need socialization, pastures to graze in and miles of open space to run -- they don't belong in the hustle and bustle of New York City. We can end their suffering: tell Mayor Bloomberg to outlaw cruel horse-drawn carriages in New York City.
Dear Mayor Bloomberg,

When a New York City carriage horse named Smoothie heard loud drumming in Central Park, she became startled and galloped onto the sidewalk and between two poles that caught her carriage. She struggled to keep running but eventually collapsed and died. Another horse startled by the noise ran into the street and collided with a car.

Carriage horses in New York City ache and wear down their hooves hauling 1200 pound carriages in the bitter cold and sweltering heat, constantly inhaling toxic car exhaust. They suffer from exhaustion because at night, they can't lie down comfortably in their tiny, feces-filled stalls. Additionally, horses cause traffic jams and accidents, and congest an already crowded part of the city.

I urge you to end the suffering of these horses and outlaw horse-drawn carriages in New York City.
