Export Pens, Eagle Pass, TX - 6/6/08-6/8/08

The Animals' Angels investigators are present at the export pens in Eagle Pass. In 2007, more than 6000 horses were exported from this facility to Mexico for slaughter. The investigators observe two Mexican trucks loaded with horses leaving the facility. The animals are loaded too densely, have no protection from the elements and not enough head room. One can only imagine what these horses endure on the long way to their final destination.
