This means that horses can't be transported as "livestock" for the purpose of slaughter for human consumption. When you go to an event you are required to have a record of immunizations and also a negative coggins if you are crossing the states line for each horse. If you have registered animals you most likely will have a copy of their registration papers as well as individual owners will be recorded on the same paperwork. There is a huge difference in the paperwork you would have if they are show horses versus auction or kill buyer bought horses going to the slaughterhouse.
