Together, we saved the Beagles. Incredible news. The expectation is that the remaining 475 beagles will be transferred to @BDRRescue by the end of August. The mission to turn off the flow of federal funds for ALL facilities that engage in dog and cast testing continues, including Marshall Farms in New York. wifr.com/2026/06/15/ridglan-…

Last Thursday, just one day after the heartbreaking death of 16-year-old carriage horse Deniz, more than 100 compassionate New Yorkers joined us on the steps of City Hall alongside several NYC Council Members to support Ryder’s Law (Intro 943). NYC resident Trinity shares why she supports #RydersLaw and believes it’s time for New York City to move beyond horse-drawn carriage rides. After yet another carriage horse death and a series of runaway carriage crashes that have injured people, there can be no more delays. NYC residents: Please politely ask your Council Member to cosponsor and pass Ryder’s Law (Intro 943), legislation that would end horse-drawn carriage rides and protect both horses and people from further tragedies. ⬇️ Everyone can take action here: nyclass.org/StopHorseAbuse

Grumpy face, a li’l scruffy, standing or hopping and fully feathered? Yup, that’s a fledgling. Unless they’re injured or in danger, you can usually let them be. A fledgling is a bird who’s just left the nest. They don’t fly much at first, but this is normal. If they can stand or hop and are covered in feathers, they’re likely fine. Their parents are usually nearby foraging for food to feed them. If you’re not sure, wait and watch from a distance to see if the parents show up. If a fledgling is in a road or other dangerous spot, it’s OK to move them to a safer place nearby but only a few feet away! A fledgling is still dependent on their parents, and the parents must be able to find them. **Note: Pigeons are the exception. Pigeons stay in the nest a long 4 weeks and look almost like adults when they fledge. Usually if a pigeon looks too young to be out of the nest (short wings, short tail, fuzzy head), they are.** If you’re not sure, send us a photo or contact your local wildlife rehabber.

Mamdani renews call for banning Central Park carriage horses after horse dies in park nydailynews.com/2026/06/10/m…

Hopefully NYC will now finally pass Ryder’s Law (named after another carriage horse who died in 2022) and stop this abuse for good.

And that’s a wrap on Day 1 of early voting! Incredible to see all of our volunteers’ hard work paying off on the ground!

Thank you, @travisbarker and @kourtneykardash, for choosing a horse-free way to experience Central Park 💚 No horse should have to suffer, collapse, or die on New York City streets for a carriage ride. With pedicabs like Central Park Bike Cab offering the same scenic experience, it's time to pass Ryder's Law and leave horse-drawn carriages in the past!

The so-called 'Save Our Bacon Act' is nothing but a giveaway to Big-Ag that would gut protections against cruel factory farming—overturning laws that ban extreme confinement of pigs, hens, and calves, and make all of our food less healthy. We can't let Congress strip states of their right to demand better for animals, our environment, and public health. op: @kris.and.dave

This year’s farm bill reflects something of a revolution—so many voices, on left and right alike, saying we shouldn’t torture pigs. Good to see faith leaders stepping up in a big way to join this effort.

NYC Intro 943 "Ryder's Law" is officially on the books. There's no reason for this to continue. @ABC7NY @CarlMichaelW @fox5ny @NYCCouncil @nycHealthy @NYCMayor @nyclass @NYDailyNews @nypost @nytimes @peta @Gothamist @dodo @CurtisSliwa @DonnyMossAR @ChrisMarteNYC

Yesterday, the Philadelphia City Council voted to ban horse-drawn carriages. Just two days after 16-year-old carriage horse Deniz collapsed while pulling passengers in Central Park and died in agony, NYC stands increasingly alone in continuing to allow this dangerous and inhumane practice. Around the country and around the world, cities have moved beyond horse-drawn carriages. Meanwhile, NYC has endured dozens of runaway crashes, collisions, collapses, and other serious incidents that have injured New Yorkers and put both horses and people at risk. New Yorkers are demanding action. The time for delays is over. Pass #RydersLaw before another horse dies and before another person is injured. @SpeakerMenin @NYCCouncil @Lynn4NYC @NYCMayor

How many more horses have to die before this ends?

Following Deniz’s tragic death, Ryder’s Law is being reintroduced. New York City — this is the moment. To recap, on Tuesday, a 16-year-old carriage horse named Deniz collapsed and died in Central Park while still attached to the carriage. The union says he was examined by a vet in March and found fit for duty. He will now be taken to Cornell University to determine what happened. Deniz is the second carriage horse to die in Central Park in less than ten months. A bill called Ryder’s Law — named after that 2022 horse — would have banned horse-drawn carriages in New York City and replaced them with electric alternatives. But that bill was defeated. What do you think about horse-drawn carriages? Would you like to see Ryder’s Law passed?

This is deplorable to these beautiful animals. Needs to be put to an end.

As another carriage horse collapses and dies in Central Park, we're left deeply disturbed and saddened. Today, Ryder's Law was reintroduced in the City Council, and we urge councilmembers to pass this legislation that would put an end to carriage horses in NYC once and for all.

Another Central Park carriage horse died in NYC on Tuesday. He collapsed on the ground and struggled in agony for 10 minutes in the 80 degree heat, before his death. The horse was 16 years old. I beg you @NYCMayor, pass Ryder's Law and BAN horse drawn carriages in NYC. The suffering these working animals endure for human entertainment is unconscionable. 💔

Another horse forced to pull a NYC carriage is DEAD. @NYCMayor has expressed support for removing horse carriages from Central Park. Now @NYCCouncil needs to immediately pass Ryder's Law to ban this cruelty once and for all.
