As Anheuser-Busch kicks off its \u201cBud Light Backyard Tour\u201d private concert series downtown this evening, PETA supporters will surround the property with signs attached to balloons carrying the message \u201cBudweiser Amputates Clydesdales\u2019 Tailbones\u201d to rooftop partygoers. As PETA recently revealed in a damning video expos\u00e9<\/a>, Budweiser has been severing the horses\u2019 tailbones\u2014either with a scalpel or with a tight band that stops the blood supply to the tail, causing it to die and fall off\u2014just so the Clydesdales will look a certain way when hitched to a beer wagon.<\/p>\n

\u201cBudweiser is full of hot air to claim that it cares about American values while chopping off horses\u2019 tails,\u201d says PETA Senior Vice President Kathy Guillermo. \u201cHorses need their tails for balance and as a first line of defense against biting and disease-spreading insects, so PETA is calling on the company to end these painful mutilations now.\u201d<\/p>\n

Where:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong>5055 Broadway Place, Nashville (near the intersection with Rep. John Lewis Way)<\/p>\n

PETA\u2014whose motto reads, in part, that \u201canimals are not ours to use for entertainment\u201d\u2014opposes speciesism, a human-supremacist worldview.<\/p>\n
