Renowned livestock expert Temple Grandin says she supports the development of humane horse slaughtering facilities in the United States.
But during an interview last week in Springfield, Grandin was surprised to learn she had been listed as a designer for a Unified Equine, LLC, horse slaughtering facility near Mountain Grove.
“I had nothing to do with landing that site,” said Grandin, who was in Springfield to speak at a conference on livestock grazing. “I didn’t even know the name of that site until just now.”
