Miami-Dade, Florida, authorities are seeking whoever abandoned a maltreated Paso Fino mare near the Everglades.

Detective Robin Pinkard, Miami-Dade Police Department public information officer, said personnel from the department’s Agricultural Patrol Section responded to a report of a horse tied to a fence on a property near the Everglades on Aug. 4.

“Once officers arrived at the property they located two horses; one was deceased from what appeared to be lack of food and water,” she said. “The second horse was in poor condition and also had no water or food.”

The mare is the latest horse apparently abandoned in the same area in recent days
