Ban the grand national and make horse racing and fox hunting illegal

Petition Details

Ban the grand national and make horse racing and fox hunting known for what it truly is... animal cruelty.
Anyone injuring a pet or farm animal in this way would be sent to court for animal cruelty. This has to stop.

Additional Information

Horses cannot say no to being forced to race, they cannot say if they are tired. Foxes cannot defend themselves against a pack of dogs and people on horses.

The money people make should not come above the health and safety of these beautiful creatures.

End this cruel sport now
