Celebs Support Petition to Stop Cruel Diving Horse Event

By Jennifer Mishler, Ecorazzi, Feb 6, 2012

"The diving horse events were stopped in the 1970′s with a brief return in the 90′s, but now Steel Pier President Anthony Catanoso plans to reopen the ridiculous and cruel shows by this summer. If you’re wondering what these events are all about – riders mount horses and ride them up a 40 foot pier and then plunge into the 12ft of water below. Yes, seriously.".....



....."Celeb animal advocates are throwing their support behind the campaign too. Today, model and animal activist Joanna Krupa shared the petition on her Facebook page, saying “I have no words to human beings that allow this. Please sign the petition.” It has also been tweeted by Running Russell Simmons star and animal activist Simone Reyes, vegan fashion designer John Bartlett, models turned animal activists the Barbi twins, and Jasmin Singer and Mariann Sullivan of Our Hen House."
