300 HORSES DESTROYED BY THE ARMY

THE ARMY has been accused of killing military horses that could have lived longer lives.

More than 300 war horses have been put to sleep by the Ministry of Defence in the last 20 years, it can be revealed.

Up to one in 10 of them were physically healthy, but had developed “dangerous temperaments”, according to government documents.

The remainder were destroyed by vets for a wide variety of medical conditions, including colic and lameness.

In one year, military horses were euthanised by Army vets at the rate of one every two weeks.
