Rescuers protect Romania's horses from being whipped 0 Leuk vinden Võ Thị Hường 2023-05-04 00:48:03 182

SIEU SFANTU, Romania (AP) — The name of his farm roughly translates to “Saving horses from a female horse killer with a whip.” But for Simion Craciun, the real predators come from the nearby slaughterhouse.

When he learned that a horse was being sold to a slaughterhouse in the poor northern Transylvania region where he lived, he rushed to pay more and bring the horse back to his picturesque land, where tourists Schedule to learn to ride a horse. speak.

“When I saw how the farmers whipped them, I went crazy,” says Craciun. “I go to sleep thinking about them. I wake up and think about them.”

Even in a country where horses are a national symbol, such concern for their welfare is rare. During difficult economic times, some Romanians are selling their horses to slaughterhouses because they cannot afford to keep them.

The European horse meat scandal has focused attention on Romania and its network of 35 factories that are authorized to slaughter horses. France says Romanian butchers are part of a supply chain that has resulted in horse meat being labeled as beef in frozen meals across Europe. The Romanians were furious and said the meat was duly declared when it left the country.

Horse exports are on the rise, growing by about 10% between 2011 and 2012, with about 6,300 tonnes of horse, mule and donkey meat being exported. Many horses have been sold by private owners.

Bedridden horses and rickety carts were once a common sight even in central Bucharest, with owners sometimes whipping the animals until they collapsed. But as part of an effort to modernize the country after joining the European Union in 2007, Romania banned horses from entering cities, making them a burden for many owners.

In the countryside, farmers have a more real relationship with their animals and take care of them like a car owner. But the cost of between €100 ($135) and €150 ($200) to raise a horse per month – up to 40% of the national average wage – may be too expensive for the self-sufficient farmer. level to be able to pay for them.

Nicu Stoica, an equestrian trainer who owns many horses, said: “Riding horses is expensive and many owners have been forced to give them up, especially since they are banned from the cities. .

Despite their current beatings, malnutrition, and disheveling, horses were an intrinsic part of agrarian society, plowing fields, trotting country roads and, until recently, trotting alongside car.

Romanians, who don't normally eat horse meat, insist that other Europeans are unfairly blaming them. In the UK, where horse meat is taboo, consumers have reacted with particular disgust to the scandal.

Costel Mustafa, a butcher at Bucharest's Bucur Obor meat market, sees it as part of a response to the condescending attitude some Western Europeans have towards Romania.

“Dude horse!” he said, as he cut a carcass of lamb. “The French just want to smear us. Brother? They are even worse.”

But Craciun agonizes over how horses in Romania are often seen as fit only for slaughter. He said he paid double what the local abattoir offered to get his first horse and now owns 14, eight of which he rescued from the abattoir.

“Never, I would sacrifice a horse,” he said.

Romania Animal Rescue in Livermore, CA USA was alerted to this quite awhile ago and I recall they were going to do what they could to locate the perpetrator too. Have you been in touch with them in the past or more recently? Here is their web address: http://www.romaniaanimalrescue.com/


I am not surprised with PETA's response nor would I request any help from HSUS or the ASPCA either. If you are able to call to Bucharest (I do not have a way to place international calls), I wonder if it's possible for any child protective agencies to be alerted. If there are children in the home there may be violence toward them as well, and if so perhaps there is an agency to contact to investigate. This is one idea. Thank you so very much for keeping Little Grey's abuse exposed and continued efforts.


Hi, Has there been any progress or leads or any updates or involvement by authorities for Little Grey and any other animals that are undoubtedly at grave risk?


There has been a national press release shown in Romanian national newspapers and PETA have shown an intereest in this case now. We are currently looking to raise £7000 to hire detective to scour the entire region as well check out land databases etc


Am praying for some news of this poor baby soon....be it good or bad we need to know what has happened and the monsters responsible need to brought to justice. I hope they dont have children....


Septembrie 6, 2011 - 16:39 Domestic Animal Abuse: Over and over again young boys and adults WITH A herTORY OF ANIMAL ABUSE AND torture are murdering children and adults in this nation�s schools, churches and work places. We must once again write and educate lawmakers, officials and community leaders on the animal-human violence connection. Most people, while well-intentioned, only act when the health and safety of their children and fellow humans are adversely affected. Lets make them aware of the animal-human violence connection, loud and clear. Dear : I write to respectfully request that you [____] the maximum penalty against [name], who allegedly [act committed]. We are waiting and the world is watching. Love for “Little Grey” and prayers from Canada! THANK-YOU for this article, Keep the good work up! TKS! Merci!


I have posted this on Neogen in hopes to spread the word : http://www.neogen.ro/bistrita/discutii, have emailed Animals Angels and Romania Animal Rescue with the link to your site requesting help.

Thank you DR, will pass on to investigator...


It's strange... where come this informations from: 'Adrian Gica 21 years of age of Canciu, Bistrita-Nasaud, România, Telephone Number 0269239368. '? Because in Bistrita Nasaud there was a village named Canciu and now it is named Dumbraveni, ( http://travelingluck.com/Europe/Romania/Romania%20%28general%29/_678702_Dumbr%C4%83veni.html#local_map ) but the phone number is from another county, Sibiu .(Instead, in Sibiu there are a lot of persons called Canciu, as last name)


It seems She may have been found: Adrian Gica (21 years old) from Canciu, country Bistrita-Nasaud, România, Telephone Number 0269239368. Police should establish her exact identity. Hopefully our petitions and complaints will help!!


The best thing we can do for Little Grey is to send this plea to everyone you know and ask that they do the same. Somebody out there knows who these abusers are and they must be found and stopped before it's too late for Little Grey. Please help. Every day that goes by means more torture and suffering for him.

Where are these a/holes? I don't want money- I want my hands around their throats!!!

Oh My God that poor horse, I can't beleive how heartless people can be. :'(


it is in MARAMURES.......its all i know...i found it on google after the ferm's name....hope that someone will find that bastards....after theyr name,if you call the police there and ask for her name they could tell you her adress.


If there is money in it for them or if they are shamed enough. Money is there and working on the shameing ;O)


My big question is will the authorities there do anything?


I watched the video - astounded at the outright cruelty. The laughter tore my soul to pieces. I send your messages to my Facebook friends in hopes these abusers will be found, charged, jailed, perhaps or even better - that an outraged citizenry will demand laws protecting animals. I see a comment that some progress has been made - can you confirm?


Hi, thank you for adding address etc to comments box, we have seen this information and all leads are being investigated. Again thank you so much for adding the information to this page, all help is appreciated so very much.


ROMANIA ask for HELP!! We need help,international help in protecting the poor animals(dog,cats,horses) - all are killed without mercy...and the corrupted police take their part of money to make all this cases forgotten!!! HELP the ANIMALS!!!!!!!!


Did you guys take advantage of the ERC Tax Credit or the PPP Program? Those were both temporary programs that Congress never renewed. But there is $2.3 trillion in pre existing programs that have been around for decades. Our company built a quick search tool so you can see what you qualify for. It only takes about 60 seconds.

Nhà em nuôi ngựa lúc đi học về giầy bẩn còn được nó liếm sạch chân và giày chị ạ. Khiếp qá em nhà em ở đâu? Nhà em ở Vinh chị ạ. ừ nhà chị Hà Nội. gửi ảnh giầy làm gìm gì? 2 đôi giày của em vừa được con ngựa nó liếm sạch không chị. Chưa sạch em ạ tự giặt đi em. Con ngựa nhà em đây ạ. Đôi giày của mẹ em đây chị ạ. Con ngựa nó cứ thấy mẹ em là tự giác nằm sấp xuống và liếm sạch đất cát trên giày. em bị ảo tưởng à em ? tự giặt sạch hơn liếm đấy . Con ngựa nhà em được mẹ em dậy là cứ có chủ về đến cửa nhà là phải chạy ra liếm không sẽ bị mẹ em cầm roi đánh nát đít. thịt ngựa mà ăn, sao bắt nó liếm ? chó đâu mà liếmm. Chị hôm nào vào đây chơi với em đi, vào đây em cam đoan giày của chị sạch bóng chị ạ. ừ. Mẹ em bảo ngựa là phải biết liếm đôi giày của chủ. Có hôm nó cắn hỏng đôi giày mẹ em còn đánh nó đến nắt đít chị ạ. giặt đi sạch hơn, hơn nữa ngựa liếm hôi lắm. Con ngựa nhà em nó hay có tính tè bậy ra sân nhà, có lần mẹ em dẫm phải và cái kết con ngựa kia bị mẹ em bắt nằm sấp lên bãi nước tè đó rồi đánh. Sau vụ đó nó biết tìm chỗ để đi vệ sinh chị ạ. ừ giỏi ngựa ngoan. Mẹ em còn bảo là con ngựa là phải cho ăn roi thường xuyên chị ạ. sao phải cho roi? Mẹ em bảo là cho ăn roi nó mới không đi đâu linh tinh 1 ngày mẹ em đánh nó ít nhất 8 roi quắn đít. Đế giày của mẹ em đây ạ. Liếm sạch sẽ luôn chị ạ. Nếu là chị, chị có nuôi ngựa theo cách của mẹ em không ạ. Không nhà chị chưa đủ tiền nuôi 1 con ngựa. Nếu là chị chị sẽ nuôi theo cách nào ạ. Nhà em ở miên núi nên ngựa hoang nó tự mò vào nhà chị ạ nuôi bình thường. Chỗ chị ít núi mà ít ngựa cha bao giờ thấy ngựa luôn. Chị nuôi ngựa thì có cần phải dùng đến roi không ạ. chị có nuôi ngựa thì chả phải có roi. Vì sao chị vì nếu chăn ngựa lúc lùa về mà ko veè thì đánh. Chị có đánh nát đít nó như mẹ em không ạ. ko nếu nó về ngay thù ko đánh sợ nó to quá nó đá lại thoi

that is great!


Such an ugly outfit. She should wear a latex catsuit and some shiny riding boots (or Hunter gloss wellies in black). But the whipping was nice.
