A judge has ruled a Manitoba company flying horses to Japan for slaughter and sushi was not responsible for what happened after the animals were dropped off at the Winnipeg airport.

A #beagle pup is worth about a grand, I think the lads came out on top even after the penalties - although not suggesting they nicked them to sell (or even did so) as they genuinely wanted a better life for the doggos and saved them from unpleasant experiments.

Its curious though and one of the anomalies of #jury #trials that these lads were found guilty whereas similar activists targeting the same place get acquitted, probably genuine luck of the draw with what jurors they get.

I don't think the prosecutions argument they were *dishonest* holds water, they were perfectly upfront about *why* they took the actions they did.

I hope the (minor) criminal records don't hold them back too much in life..

Ok folks.
Finally.
The government consultation on ending trail hunting with dogs is open as of yesterday 27/3/26 for you to add your thoughts. It closes mid June. Please dont wait to add your own voice to why the neglectful way humans use animals for blood sports is cruel and how they are discarded when their usage is over.

Dogs, horses and wild creatures should be able to live free of malicious use. From hounds to terriers, foxes to domestic cats murdered brutally on their own home territory, to dogs being run over, hunting uncontrolled across roads, to being shot and skipped still not dead.

Lets finally tell elitist so called sports folk that they need to stick to the ones that dont misuse animals.
