Premarin is an estrogen replacement drug made from the urine of pregnant mares. The mares are kept pregnant until they cannot reproduce anymore... they remain tied in a breeding stock for the first 6 months of their pregnancy. But, I cannot give you the full story... if you want the full story go to premarin.org If you want to help with this horrible problem, check out the list of websites below. Remember, a filly has less than a one in ten chance of being sent to slaughter, and a colt has a one in fifty chance. Help save these beautiful horses! Here is a list of websites.

Okay, that is all I can find right now... as soon as I have found more, I will post them... But please, sign the petitions, and if you can, help save a foal from slaughter. Just one makes a difference. If you know any women that are taking these drugs, tell them not to.
