Tell me fate didn't step in here!

Thanks to the Fuglyblog for alerting me to this one!

From the US - 30 horses on a trailer, bound for Mexico to be slaughtered. Truck crashes and rolls over. Thirteen horses die - not a miracle you say? Well, here is the good part - 17 horses survived, and the owner of that herd allowed them to be adopted instead of loading them on another truck for slaughter. Each and every one of them is now getting the treatment they deserve, and the chance at a new life. Some have health issues, some have behavioural problems, their ages vary from yearlings to 20-somethings, but every horse in the group has a chance, thanks to some very generous people, and an owner who could see past the quick buck from slaughter.
