What's the problem?
Working horses and donkeys are part of everyday life in popular holiday destinations around the world, with hundreds of thousands employed in the tourist trade across the world. But overwork and bad practice can lead to animals suffering.
Many animals spend all day every day carrying heavy loads, as they taxi tourists across tricky terrain at bargain prices, often under the blazing sun, with little shade, water or rest. Exhausted animals suffer heat stress, injuries, dehydration, beatings and wounds as part of this ‘holiday experience’ with their poor owners working them hard to bring in a daily income.
What can you do to help?
Every person has the power to prevent a working horse or donkey from suffering, and the Brooke is now on hand to help caring travellers make responsible choices: |
