Injuries suach as the one received by this horse occur due to the mixing of horses that are not familiar with each other, and the overcrowding of horses in pens and/or on trailers at livestock markets(sales), on trailers, or at dealer's facilities.
The handling and management of horses at these low end livestock markets do not meet accepted horse industry management practices, and cause injury and stress to the horses.
