ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. NAERIC - North American Equine Ranching Council Foals PMU Foals Ranching America Ranchers and Canada Ranch Premarin there aren't as many PMU farms as once was,but the industry has made positive changes & foals produced from these farms are just not biproducts. Dr. Sarah Ralston, associate professor of equine science at Cook College, Rutgers, and an expert on equine nutrition, has traveled to North Dakota for the past three summers and brought PMU foals back to New Jersey. Despite the enormous loses in its income from Premarin-type drugs, Wyeth has created a $3.7 million trust fund to help transport the horses to recreational auctions and equine rescues. Mares are given thorough veterinary inspections two or three times a year - more than the average pleasure horse, according to recent USDA statistics. United Pegasus also has PMU mares and foals of various ages available for adoption. According to Ralston, "The treatment of the mares is now highly regulated by Wyeth on the licensed Premarin farms. UPF is one of many organizations actively buying foals at auction and finding homes for them. It is not going to go away. 1,2 For most of their 11-month pregnancies, these horses are confined to stalls so small that they cannot turn around or take more than a single step in any direction. The drug is available in several forms including pills, creams, injections, and patches. As to the 30-minute exercise regulation, Ralston observes: "It is a minimum - most ranchers I have spoken to say they let the mares out 'as needed,' which means if they get stocked up or antsy before the two-week deadline. Stringfield also has concerns about mares, citing Wyeth's 30 minutes every two weeks exercise regulation when mares are on-line.
Collection is generally from October to March, and the mares give birth in the spring.
The draft and quarter horse mares which predominate in the industry are perfectly content to stand in a nice, warm barn, eating all day next to their friends.
The ranchers say that when they do turn the mares out they might run around for a few minutes but then congregate at the barn door, asking to be let back in." The Pregnant Mare Urine (PMU) Industry: What you need to know Marie, in her former life as a PMU horse, before she was rescued by the Ark Watch Foundation and eventually brought to Duchess where she lived out the rest of her days in comfort and peace. There are strict regulations that insure the humane treatment of the mares, especially when they are "on-line" in both Canada and the U.S. Premarin Horses.
Foals are sent to auction in September. A NAERIC spokeswoman says, "Now we are competition [for people who breed horses]. Premarin stands for Pregnant Mare’s Urine (PMU) and it is prescribed to women to reduce the symptoms of menopause in menopausal and post-menopausal women. Where Premarin Comes From According to an industry report, 19 ranches in remote areas of Canada house approximately 1,300 pregnant mares who produce urine for Premarin and Prempro. Think about it - most of the farms are in the North Central plains, where from October through March there is three feet or more of snow on the ground and temperatures are usually below zero with the wind blowing! Says Ralston, "The Premarin industry has been in place for over thirty years and provided a lot of benefits to women world-wide. Pregnant Mare’s Urine (PMU) is used to produce the horse estrogen-based Premarin family of drugs. If ranches don't comply with the requirements for stall size, cleanliness, ventilation, feed, water and veterinary/farrier care, their contracts are revoked.
They have developed an incentive program to improve the marketing of the PMU offspring. And animal cruelty laws and government regulations do not apply to the treatment of mares and foals on Premarin farms. Sorry, your blog cannot share posts by email. The foals are used for research studies, such as the use of vitamin supplementation in the reduction of disease for long-haul transport.
