Brewer Anheuser-Busch said on Wednesday it has stopped cutting off the tails of Clydesdale horses used in publicity for its Budweiser brand of beer after People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) launched a campaign against the practice.
“The safety and well-being of our beloved Clydesdales is our top priority. The practice of equine tail docking was discontinued earlier this year,” Anheuser-Busch, part of the Anheuser-Busch InBev global brewing giant, said in a statement.
