A somewhat gruesome photo of a dead horse in a dumpster has been doing the rounds on Maltese social media today.

The photo sparked quite the rage online, as people rushed to comment about animal cruelty and the illegal disposal of dead animals.

The photo doesn’t reveal much about the actual location of the dumpster

It transpires that the site is a Wasteserv location where dead animal carcasses are regularly taken to be incinerated. This is standard procedure, as confirmed by several sources.

As unsettling as the photo is, the horse allegedly died a natural death and was not mistreated. All registered animals that are certified as dead are disposed of in this manner for sanitary purposes.
