Are you serious?  Just have a look at the rules for home kill beef!!!

I don't see the connection between rules for killing stock for human consumption and euthanising horses if that's what you are talking about.

Is the process supervised?

I've no idea. Do you know? There are numerous people who do that but I don't really see how that relates to the thread topic.

The topic is about Nairn who dissects eunthanised horses.  Don't you see the connection?  Part of the thread shows a video of the "new horse dissection and therapy laboratory".  Loose use of the term laboratory.

I just happened to see a video Nairn did showing the spine of a 4yr old horse.  She argued that the fact the growth plates in the vertebrae haven't closed is evidence of pathology caused by race training.  However the science says that growth plates don't fully close until 5 to 6 years!!!

Did she say that the lack of closure was pathological itself and due to the early training, or that the intense training prior to closure could cause pathology, e.g. back strain?
