Animal rights activists said Monday that Ryder, the carriage horse who infamously collapsed in Midtown this summer, has died.
The sad news was announced by the Unbridled Heroes Project and the sanctuary where he had been living since the infamous collapse took place. This came amid swirling rumors that the former work animal’s health had been rapidly declining, sources close to the situation revealed.
“We are devastated to learn that Ryder has died. His horrific collapse, after years of abuse, inspired tens of thousands of people from across the globe to stand up to carriage horse industry cruelty. But make no mistake: this tragedy was not caused by an act of God – Ryder’s death was the result of savage cruelty and greed.
“We are devastated to learn that Ryder, the elderly horse who collapsed and was beaten by his carriage owner in the street in the midst of a heat wave this summer, has died. Ryder’s death is yet another tragic reminder that horse carriages do not belong on the streets of NYC and was wholly avoidable had NYC Speaker Adrienne Adams respected the wishes of 71% of New Yorkers to pass a ban on horse carriages.
