Site Search Home Animal Welfare vs. Animal Rights News ... Member Links Professional Opinions WHAT THE EXPERTS SAY ABOUT ANIMALS IN ENTERTAINMENT, INDUSTRY, SPORT AND RECREATION While many critic groups continue to pass false propaganda as fact, those who use animals in entertainment, industry, sport and recreation depend on documented information compiled by experts. In all animal industries, veterinarians and behavior experts speak out on the well-being of animals that interact with humans in a number of ways. Organizations that are members of the Animal Welfare Council are constantly monitoring animal welfare guidelines and programs to insure that all animals used are provided proper care and management. The horse industry has been forced in recent years to deal with many animal welfare issues facing the use of equine in many different disciplines. A hot topic has included the classification of horses. There is a spirited debate between those who feel horses should be classified as livestock (which is the case in most laws on the books) or whether they should be reclassified as companion animals because some people think of their horses as pets. The American Association of Equine Practitioners and the American Horse Council have released a while paper on the subject and that can be accessed at: The use of animals in rodeo is a favorite target of critic groups. The sport of rodeo employs thousands if not millions of animals who are bred specifically for rodeo competition in the various rodeo events. The Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA) chooses to turn to the experts when answering questions regarding the care and treatment of rodeo livestock at PRCA sanctioned events. The experts are the on-site rodeo veterinarians who are required by PRCA rules to attend each rodeo performance. Surveys conducted by these independent, on-site rodeo vets have consistently shown the rate of injury to rodeo animals to be statistically negligible. To see the results of the latest survey and comments from rodeo veterinarians go to:

Animal Welfare Observations made on several hundred farms, ranches, feedlots, and slaughter plants indicates that the single most important factor which affects animal welfare is the attitude of management. Places that have good animal welfare have a manager who cares about welfare. Places where animal welfare is poor often have a manager who does not care. A good manager enforces standards to maintain good welfare. Employees are well trained and people who abuse animals are punished. I have observed that the most effective manager is involved enough in day to day operations to care but he or she is not so involved that they become numb and desensitized to animal suffering. People who handle hundreds of animals each day can become desensitized. They need a strong manager to serve as their conscience.

18. SeniorRodeo.com National Senior Pro Rodeo Association article refuting many of the claims made about welfare infringements and cruelty to horses, cattle and calves used in rodeo sports. http://www.seniorrodeo.com/animal_welfare.htm

World Champions World Standings Rodeo Results Individual Results ... Package Tours Animal Welfare Animal welfare, which is caring for and meeting an animal's needs, is practiced as a matter of course in the sport of rodeo. We respect, admire, and want to take care of the animals that are so important to our way of life. It's obvious that rodeo is not taxing for the huge, powerful bulls that toss cowboys around like rag dolls, but some people may wonder if roping is hard on calves. A calf has more than tripled its weight when it is first roped, which is at about 200 pounds on the Senior Pro Rodeo tour, and is a strong animal. It takes the special roping and handling skills exhibited by the rodeo cowboy to manage the strength of a calf whose instinct is to flee or fight rather than cuddle. The roping contest is an extension of the necessary skills developed by ranch cowboys on the open range over the last 200 years, to help with doctoring, etc., without benefit of pens and corrals. The muscular structure of a calf and its hairy, thick hide allows prudent roping without harm. As is observed, immediately upon removal of the rope, calves trot out of the arena in a most unconcerned manner. Calves, who soon outgrow weight limits for the event, then fulfill the same purpose they would have in the dairy or beef industry, after their brief stint in the rodeo arena. Bull riding has become rodeo's most popular contest. It is not related to any ranch task, but looking at it from the standpoint of the animals, bull riding serves the bull population. More female cattle than male cattle are required in both dairy operations and the building of beef herds. More male cattle are born than are needed for breeding purposes. Rather than send some of those male cattle to the beef packers, rodeo adds years to their lives. Injury to animals is infrequent with rates documented at a small part of 1%. The use of horses and bulls in rodeo is so undemanding that they stay healthy and perform well for many years. It is not unusual for a bucking horse to be kicking up its heels in fine fashion over the age of 25 and many bulls are still active buckers at 15 years of age. Veterinarians attribute it to the good care they receive which includes quality feed and adequate exercise.
