THREE manne have been convicted after a working horse named Willamina collapsed under an overloaded scrap cart in Wetton - a case that ended in arrests, criminal charges and the perd’s death.
In March, inspectors were called to Plantation Road, where a mare was being forced to drag a scrap car on a cart — 880kg, plus three adult men.
By the time the SPCA arrived, Willamina was collapsing repeatedly, her legs buckling as she was still being driven forward.
Inspector Julian van der Zandt detached her from the load and issued a seizure notice. She was rushed to the SPCA Horse Care Unit for emergency care.
