The Municipal Equestrian Care Center, under the Undersecretariat of Environment, has put up for adoption equines that had previously been rescued from different situations.
Julio Gesuali, head of the Municipal Veterinary Department, commented that the Center has a registry of adopters with more than 200 people, explaining that “through different operations, we rescue horses that may be involved in animal-drawn traction (TAS), that are being mistreated, or those that are loose on public roads and are subsequently unclaimed. Those are the three ways in which we take them to the Equestrian Center,” he noted.
In that sense, he also highlighted that each horse adopter receives a donation of balanced feed for their animals and that all equines given up for adoption are fitted with a geo-referenced microchip.
