In this episode, Kathy, Patrick &amp; Nicole discuss:   The staggering number of horses killed racing or training annually Racing as it's portrayed by the media vs. the realities of horseracing The fate of "spent" racehorses How to end horseracing in the U.S.   Key Takeaways:   Roughly 15,000 thoroughbreds are sent to slaughterhouses in Mexico and Canada annually from the US. Horses are kept in unrelenting confinement and isolation for up to 23 hours a day. Horses are not fully mature until around age six; racehorses typically start an intense training regimen around 18 months old. The industry's dirty little secret: approximately 2,000 racehorses die annually during training or racing.    "Instead of paying $200-$300 to euthanize the horse, they profit one last time on that horse by sending him to an auction, where he is usually snatched up by a kill buyer." – Patrick Battuello    Connect with Patrick and Nicole:   Twitter: twitter.com/racingwrongs Facebook: facebook.com/HorseracingWrongs Website: www.horseracingwrongs.com     Connect with Kathy Stevens:  Facebook: facebook.com/kathy.stevens.CAS, facebook.com/catskillanimalsanctuary  Twitter: twitter.com/CASanctuary/  Books: https://store.casanctuary.org/collections/books/products/where-the-blind-horse-sings  Website: Catskill Animal Sanctuary  Instagram: instagram.com/catskill_animal_sanctuary/  YouTube: www.youtube.com/user/CASanctuary        Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.
