Poor Jeewan was identified by his earlier owners in the dogger’s paddock when they watched One Year On and were horrified to recognise their horse.

He is a NSW horse and Racing NSW has LR114 that states that no horse can be sent directly or indirectly to slaughter, yet Jeewan was about to be slaughtered for human consumption.

We are going to persist until horse slaughter no longer exists for any purpose within Australia -- and until the horse racing industry makes drastic changes.
We are going to continue our hands-on work to offer lifelong sanctuary to as many horses as possible. We generally have 20 at just one of our locations - at any given time.
