Today I read an article in National Geographic KIDS about a horse that was rescued by The U. S . border patrol in Arizona and was put in the hands of Equine Voices Rescue & Sanctuary. The horse was abused by drug smugglers, and was exhausted, sick and starving. If the horse had not been rescued, it would of died. There were 400 pounds of drugs carelessly roped to the horse without any padding and the ropes cut into it's skin. The horse was several hundred pounds underweight. They nursed him back to health and he is doing amazing now! This is why I chose to give money to an organization like this!
