Where Premarin Comes From

There are about 100 ranches in remote areas of North Dakota and Canada that house thousands of pregnant mares who produce urine for Premarin and Prempro. For most of their 11-month pregnancies, these horses are confined to stalls so small that they cannot turn around or take more than one step in any direction. The animals must wear rubber urine-collection bags at all times, which causes chafing and lesions, and their drinking water is limited so that their urine will yield more concentrated estrogen. Once the foals are born, the horses are reimpregnated; this cycle continues for about 12 years.

The Fate of the Foals

The fate of the thousands of foals born on PMU farms each year is equally disturbing. Some are used to replace their exhausted mothers. Some are offered for adoption (although Wyeth-funded farms are not permitted to work with rescue organizations), but the remaining foals—along with worn-out mares—are sold at auction, where most are purchased by buyers for slaughterhouses. One PMU industry insider says, “See, the foals—and the mares which [sic] can’t get pregnant any more—they are the byproduct of the PMU industry. ... We crush ’em and recycle ’em, just like [aluminum] cans.”

Testimonials ...

I applaud your work and will be happy to volunteer when we are back in Florida after Christmas. We have a small ranch in Montana NW of Missoula. We have 6 horses and our ranch manager keeps 3 of his own while he is training. He is teaching me how to train, so maybe I could be of some assistance to you. But I can groom too and love to do that. Keep in touch, as I will.

Sincerely,

Kathie Gamble

How sad is it when you see one of God's creatures in that kind of shape? Heart wrenching to say the least. However, there is hope for this beautiful girl. Once you get her out of pain, and on a good diet, she will spring back. Yes, one at a time does make a difference. It shouts out to this girl HOPE, HELP, and STRENGTH. Once you get her up and going she will be able to stand proud with her head up as if to say "Look at me! I am proud! I am of Value, and I have Worth and Diginity!" You are AWESOME to me and I so admire you and what you do! If these kids could talk, they would have you (and many others) in tears, on a daily basis.
Compared to what he looked like when you first got him, Ghost looks great now! Keep up the awesome work! I admire you for sacrificing your dreams and wants, just to be able to save them from suffering. It is so hard to save them, build them back up (in spirit and body), and then see them leave to go to a new forever home. It is truly an addiction of the heart that is bittersweet. Your heart is ripped out of your chest when you first see them, then you nurture them and work with them until they bloom into a beautiful creature, then your heart is ripped out again when they are adopted. However, you know you must let them go so that you have room to save more. The hardest thing is to have to turn one away for lack of a place to put them. Arnette, Levy County Animal Shelter

Dear Devon,

We are so grateful for your compassion and for everything that you are doing to help animals.

Very best regards,

Carrie Edwards
PETA Foundation

Devon is one special girl on this planet.....Her love and devotion to animals is a real inspiration.

Thank you Devon for taking care of those who cannot take care of themselves and are at the mercy of the human race.

Aimee O'Meara, Altamonte Springs, FL

Hey,

Ghost updated .....WOW!

"Our treatment of animals will someday be considered barbarous. There cannot be a peaceful civilization until man realizes that the rights of every living creature are as sacred as his own. Never doubt that a small group of concerned citizens can change the world. Indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."

- Buddha Siddhartha Gautama

Well done Devon!

Shawn, New York

Wow, Devon, I am really impressed with what you are doing. It is so depressing knowing what some of these animals go through, isn't it? Thank you for sharing your story with me. Is it o.k. if I share it with a couple of people from FANI? Gigi, PMU Foundation

Devon,

What a tear jerker.

When i saw the pics of Ghost and the other babies you have taken in and helped and are helping, and know the decision, and sacrifices you have made i am truly moved. It really is a heart moving moment to hear that a voiceless creature of God is now in good hands and regardless of the sacrifices we make, we are so moved in our hearts to be a part of the daily change for the better these animals are making. Its such a joy to know their are people in the world like you. Thanks from the voiceless animals. Debbie, United Humanitarians, Central Florida
