Make New York City the next city to ban the cruel and antiquated practice of horse-drawn carriages. Millions of people in New York and around the world have become attuned to the cruelty these horses endure after videos emerged of Ryder, a 26-year-old horse, collapsing on the busy streets of New York City.
Several cities — including Salt Lake City, Chicago, Camden, Treasure Island, Pompano Beach, Palm Beach, Key West, and Biloxi — have already banned horse-drawn carriages. New York City is long overdue to do the same.
