A case that ended in arrests, criminal charges and the mare's death.In March, inspectors were called to Plantation Road in Wetton, where a dark bay mare was being forced to drag a scrap car mounted on a cart weighing 880kg. Three men were riding on top of the scrap. 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. Severe fractures made recovery impossible, and she was humanely euthanised.
