yeongju police have been provided with video evidence that a man repeatedly whipped a horse, kicked it, and stomped on its head in December.

The Coexistence of Animal Rights on Earth (CARE) shared this footage of the extreme abuse with The Korea Observer on Wednesday.

In the video the horse is struck 52 times with a whip while tied to a heavy carriage.

The horse tries to move forward and pull the heavy cart but falls to the ground after several heavy blows with the whip.

“a man whipped the horse 52 times, kicked it in the head nine times, and stomped on its head once”

This abuse goes on for at least two minutes before the horse’s hind legs collapse.

It appears as if the man then strikes the horse across the head with a fist or open hand.

The horse lays flat on the ground while the man continues to beat the horse with a whip, hitting it on the head many times.

This man also kicks the horse in the head 9 times and stomps on the horses head once.

“We found the person responsible and they are now under investigation by Gyeongju police,” the director of CARE, AJ Garcia said.

“We are trying to find and rescue the horse,” he added.

The police are following up on this matter.
