摘要

Federal law and regulations require that horses be treated humanely, whether they are horses exhibited at shows or horses being transported to slaughterhouses. As the agency of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) tasked with enforcing the humane treatment of these animals, the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) operates two programs. The Horse Protection Program ensures that show horses are not subjected to the abusive practice of soring, i.e., physically mistreating a horse to cultivate a certain gait in the show ring. The Slaughter Horse Transport Program ensures that horses being shipped for slaughter to foreign processing plants are transported humanely. The Office of Inspector General (OIG) initiated this audit to evaluate APHIS oversight of the humane treatment of horses, both those being shown and those being shipped to slaughter.
