Burying the dead animal is for the peace of mind of the human not the well being of the dead animal, it is dead. Whether it is feeding insects or pets makes no difference to the dead animal. I see no problems w/ butchering for meat any animal horse included.
The medical points brought up are worth noting for sure for human consumption, there are many many people (myself included) that have serious pcn allergies, and if eating horse meat can produce a pcn allergy it seems it could certainly cause one. (pcn reaction)
A question for those who brought up the medical reasons for not butchering/eating horses, would you still object if they were raised using the same meds as beef cattle?
