What about the Horses in other parts of the Island? Or don't they matter?
I am so relieved to see this - after spending this past weekend in Palma was so horrified to see these carriages being used - no shade or water for the horses and I saw one particular horse with an open wound where the leather strap was rubbing against his painfully thin rib cage which must be agony. I have signed the change.org petition that was set up by Ellie Gibson and am going to write to Neus Truyol to express me concern. Please if you are reading this do as much as you can to comment on this subject. Anne Calder
