After video showed a horse collapse as it pulled a carriage along a street in Manhattan, animal rights advocates are now renewing their push to ban horse-drawn carriages in the city
Central Park Carriage Horse Euthanized After Collapse; City Officials Call for Investigation Amid Public Protest
Hansen said that the video of Ryder on the ground is being weaponized by activist groups, and that he was in"rough shape" when he came into their program after being used as a buggy horse for a Pennsylvania farmer. She also said that the horse was not overheated or dehydrated. Central Park’s carriage horses have returned to work for the first time since the coronavirus pandemic hit New York City last spring.
There are 200 licensed carriage horses in NYC, an industry that includes 130 active drivers. The industry could face a seismic shift, all thanks to a bill by Queens City Councilmember Robert Holden that would force carriage drivers to switch to electric carriages — a move that can cost anywhere from $20,000 to $30,000.
