U.S. Racehorse Rescued from Slaughterhouse in South Korea by PETA [Video]

My Elusive Dream, a Thoroughbred racehorse, is now living her dream life — all thanks to PETA!

The animal rights nonprofit organization recently announced that they rescued the animal when she was just moments away from entering the largest horse slaughterhouse in South Korea.

My Elusive Dream, who raced at top U.S. horse racing tracks and is the daughter of 2002 leading North American horse El Prado, was “forced to breed” following her racing career and welcomed five foals in the United States, before then welcoming three more offspring in South Korea, where she was sold for $7,500.

As she was recently scheduled to be sent to the “largest” slaughterhouse in the nation, according to PETA, activists saved her by “staking out” the road to the location.

PETA said that after its members “boldly intercepted” the vehicle carrying My Elusive Dream, they were able to convince the driver to release her.
