The investigation into a series of horse killings in Florida widened on June 19 when a rancher discovered two slaughtered horses partially buried in a dirt mound on his Miami-Dade County property.


The discovery is the latest in an ongoing Miami-Dade Police investigation into a series of incidents involving horses slaughtered by poachers.


A similar investigation is ongoing in Miramar, Fla., where the butchered remains of two Paso Fino horses were discovered on May 6.
