Budweiser Parent Co. to Stop Cutting Tails Off Clydesdale Horses After Pressure From Activists

Budweiser owner Anheuser-Busch said it has stopped cutting the tails off its famous Clydesdale horses after months of pressure from animal-rights activists who say the practice is cruel.

The brewing giant’s concession to activists comes as it tries to navigate its way through the culture wars, after a consumer backlash over a promotion with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney buffeted sales. The Budweiser Clydesdales rank among America’s best-known corporate icons and are one of AB InBev’s oldest and most consistently used marketing motifs.

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, or Peta, and other nonprofits have campaigned for months to get AB InBev to stop docking the horses’ tails. The practice causes horses lifelong pain, affects their balance, leaves them unable to brush away flies and interferes with their ability to communicate with herdmates, the groups say.


How about PET of Humans and stop lopping dicks and tits off minors?

Flood that zone! You should start a thread about how Biden is taking your gas stove while your guys shut down the government to save a Nazi from law and order.

Attack, Deflect, Deny

This.

I know nothing of horses, why would you cut the tail off anyway? What happens?

The uncut (easy there special k) hairs hang into the piss collector buckets used to collect the liquid from which they make their beer.

Sounds right. Their contempt for wearing pants and our scorn for bags of oats made this inevitable.

Rack Meat Head!
