Canadian horses exported to Japan for slaughter falling ...
Horses flown from Canada to Japan for slaughter continue to get sick, get injured and even die, according to a new investigation by animal rights advocates.
globalnews.caIt looks like your query is mixing two different “Gino / Wild Horses” topics, so here’s what the latest‑ish news actually relates to:
1. “Wild horses” in Canada (Alberta focus)
Recent coverage in early–mid 2026 centers on Alberta’s wild (feral) horse populations and the ongoing debate over management and culling.[2][4]
- The Alberta government has been working on a “feral horse rescue and management program,” with advocates such as the Wild Horses of Alberta Society cautiously optimistic about progress in 2026.[4]
- Animal‑welfare groups and some Albertans continue to push back against large‑scale culls and the use of birth control, circulating petitions and holding rallies to stop further removals.[3][2]
There isn’t currently a widely reported, brand‑new “Gino”‑linked event around Canadian wild horses; most current coverage is about these broader Alberta‑based management plans and protests.[2][4]
2. Gino Vannelli and “Wild Horses”
If you meant singer Gino Vannelli’s song “Wild Horses,” that is a 1987 single from his album Big Dreamers Never Sleep and not directly connected to Canadian wild‑horse policy.[6]
- The title is sometimes used in cultural or media framing (for example, a TV interview series segment titled “A Wild Horse Looks Back” featuring Vannelli), but these are music‑career pieces, not wild‑horse‑policy news.[8][6]
If you can clarify whether you meant an animal‑welfare campaigner named Gino, a specific horse‑rescue group, or something else about “Gino & wild horses in Canada,” I can tighten the latest‑news focus for you.
