We feed our horses with barley, bran, hay and straw. They do not have to be fed with the leftovers in the garbage of the restaurants as they used to be. They are extremely well cared for. They eat well. Our foals were also born. They also grew up. Now they continue their happy lives with their mothers in our barns. "
BOTH HORSES AND FAYTONERS WERE NOT VICTIMED
As it is known, with the removal of the phaetonism, which turned into an ordeal for everyone in the Islands, and the introduction of electric vehicles, Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (IMM) bought a total of 117 horses in the region. Later, the horses that had been worked under bad conditions for years were appropriated so that their future lives would not turn into a torment. In this regard, official institutions, especially municipalities, were preferred for horses to receive healthy care. Afterwards, IMM delivered the horses to the institutions with which a protocol was signed, in a safe manner, in return for the signature of the authorities of the recipient party.
