Target: Summer Stephan, San Diego County, CA District Attorney
Goal: Halt rodeo events that seem to cause severe animal suffering and pursue accountability for unlawful cruelty.
Reports describe an upcoming rodeo event that is facing a serious legal challenge over alleged animal cruelty. According to court filings, the rodeo is accused of involving practices that inflict needless suffering on animals for entertainment. These allegations have intensified following reports from a prior event of a horse crashing into a fence at full speed, collapsed, and was never able to stand again.
Internal records later revealed that public statements about the horse’s condition were allegedly misleading. The animal was reportedly transported out on a sled, kept overnight at an animal facility, and released despite being unable to walk and given a very poor prognosis by a veterinarian. It has further been alleged that no X-rays were taken. These purported facts have raised significant concerns about transparency, animal welfare, and public safety.
Animal protection advocates argue that these alleged practices violate state law prohibiting needless suffering. The case also highlights reports of roping calves at full speed, violently slamming them to the ground, twisting steers’ necks, forcing animals to buck using straps, and using pregnant mares in dangerous events. This petition calls for decisive intervention to stop practices that allegedly harm animals under the guise of sport.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear DA Stephan,
We are writing to express deep concern surrounding rodeo events that reportedly involve violent and harmful treatment of animals. As alleged in ongoing litigation, certain rodeo practices may constitute needless suffering prohibited under California law.
Of particular concern are reports that a horse collapsed after crashing into a fence and never recovered, alongside allegations that the public was misled about the animal’s condition and veterinary care. Additional reports describe calves and steers being roped, slammed, and twisted with force, as well as animals being made to buck through the use of straps, sometimes with catastrophic results.
We respectfully urge your office to fully review these allegations and take appropriate action to protect animals from purported cruelty. Please use your authority to enforce the law, pursue accountability where warranted, and prevent future events that allegedly place animals at serious risk.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

SHAME on all those who are guilty of the fate of their extremely suffering and dying animals. Whether in the past, present or future.
it is a damn shame.
why – why – why???
so many different animals are raped, tortured with joy and/or with blatant sadism.
the government MUST make new laws and change old ones.
why do men have to “let off steam” on defenseless animals with destructive and deadly violence.
the “men” must be made examples.
I agree!! Rodeos should be abolished!!
Ich stimme dem absolut zu aber es sind auch Frauen und Männer sind das ganz bestimmt nicht für mich sind das dreckige Hurrensöhne die alle samt den elektrischen Stuhl verdienen. Ich möchte für diesen Menschlichen Dreck die Todesstrafe.
Agree with all you say except I know rodeos are gender specific when it comes to the cruelty that goes on. Even children are taught that they must do certain things to get results. All rodeos must end.
All these animal cruelty games for the monetary gain and entertainment of humans NEED TO ALL BE ABOLISHED NOW. The animals are used and then thanked by being abused further. If they should any sign of weakness no medical care seems to be pursued!!!! NICE THANK YOU…GREEDY SOULLESS BASTARDS!!
The veterinarian should lose his license. All involved in these cruelty games should pay the consequences with real punishment. These dear animals did not ask or comply to being used and abused!! Get them all their justice!!
Rodeos – dickless loser men tormenting helpless animals and making entertainment out of killing or maiming them. The vets involved are all corrupt.
NOTHING remotely resembling true cowboys.
Do you know why hoses and steers buck? because these dickless losers put a fucking STARP around the animal’s genitals. It has NOTHING to do with someone riding them – that strap hurts.
Do the same to these fucking creeps.
End everything that animals can get hunted at for humans enjoyment & to make money betting on them. The animals never asked for this shit, leave them out of it
Agree all comments should be every country. Cruel sport should never be allowed. People dont care . All about money.sick bastards.
Rodeos and bull fighting should be abolished in all countries!!
Where were the “WORKING “ security CAMERAS! They cut the gate to get in. & no security on these premises! You cannot run a Sanctuary or Whatever, , without safe security for these poor Animals! I give credit to all the Animal caregivers who love & care about Animals. But , you MUST understand, There are Human SAVAGES out there. These defenseless animals , are Sacrefices, for SATAN’S human Demons. They deserve to be Shot, & DIG THEIR OWN GRAVES!!!
The average IQ of rodeo fans will barely make it into double figures. These inbred, mouth breathing, toothless, dirty, shit kicking hill billies care about nothing except perhaps their next banjo lesson. They are cheap and lazy and will jump at the chance to make money from beings who cannot speak or defend themselves. They are inherently savage and brutal morons who are clearly animal abusers, cowards and bullies
