Can't believe I had to blow the dust off this account because my other one was shadowbanned and I'm still reply deboosted on this one

Hey I really like when people translate or share info but let's also look at this. So I actually pulled the data chart shown in the video, since it wasn't linked by you.
3042 horses are in the racing/riding industry
1194 horses go to breeding
Now you address 1012 horses are "slaughtered"
I think this is a misappropriation of the term へい死 as officially by JRA 斃死 is stated as horses which die from accidents, injuries, or sickness. Not slaughter.
This is not a registry list but the number of horses that retire by the way. The video clearly addresses there is no data that address the slaughter or what happens to horses beyond their retirement, and the woman is assuming what happens to it.
As I had a decently large request on /Pakacord, I would make a post here as well regarding the ancestry of Take Yutaka (jockey) and the influence his family held and its importance to the JRA beyond Take Yutaka himself. 1/
I feel bad whenever I have to repost a reply on this acc that I had already sent on my shadowbanned account because it feels very spammy but I'd just feel worse if I didn't 😭
@isopie_ggp Suuuper sorry if this is spammy since I did send this a few days ago, but that account was shadowbanned!!
Also I do think it's a waste if I don't at least post it on an account where things have a slightly better chance of being seen overall, big thanks 😭🙇♀️
@Heat0nBeat@fagnestachyon If I may defend Efforia for a second here, he actually had a very pleasant temperament all throughout his racing career as told by multiple anecdotes, far from "very angry guy" 👉👈
In terms of how it affected his racing career, I think it's just that he lost interest in racing
