NATIONAL NEWS - A petition to get the Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality to stop the illegal slaughter of horses is being circulated online following the death of a Greenbushes pony.

A furore erupted last week after a pony, named Lofty, was taken from a Greenbushes smallholding and allegedly butchered in Kragga Kamma.

The pony was reported missing on Tuesday last week amid allegations that he had been illegally sold to a slaughterhouse.

Port Elizabeth horse owner Lauren Try started the petition on Friday. It has since been signed 216 times.
