Horse-racing bosses condemn abattoir practices Published media captionInside the abattoir slaughtering racehorses Irish and British horse-racing authorities have condemned footage that revealed evidence of a UK abattoir breaking welfare rules when slaughtering former racehorses. Horse Racing Ireland said the footage - which featured in a BBC Panorama investigation - was abhorrent. The British Horseracing Authority (BHA) met welfare experts earlier to discuss the issue as a matter of urgency . The abattoir told the BBC it did not accept any form of animal abuse. The covert footage, recorded by the anti-horse racing campaign group Animal Aid, showed horses being killed in front of each other and being shot from a distance at Drury and Sons - one of the UK s biggest abattoirs and one of the few licensed to slaughter horses.
