[RC] Horse Welfare Committe Article - Karen

I have
just mailed a letter to the editor regarding the article from the Welfare
Committee.  The long and the short of it, and which you can read
hopefully in the next issue is that they had better do a better job in
defining what constitutes a horse death as a result of endurance
riding.  Beetle poisoning as a result of endurance riding, I don't
think so.


Am I glad I'm not on that committee! 
First, people complain that we aren't documenting why horses are dying
and including all of the ones that die.  Then, when they do (and
show us that they aren't all really caused by endurance riding), people
still complain!
