Get AOL News Alerts � Toxin Suspected in Death of 21 Horses By BRIAN SKOLOFF , AP posted: 5 HOURS 28 MINUTES AGO comments: 1138 filed under: Animal News, National News PrintShare Text SizeAAA WELLINGTON, Fla. (April 20) - Ladies in their spring dresses and men in casual linen suits sipped champagne and nibbled hors d'oeuvres as they waited for the U.S. Open polo match. What they ended up with was a field of death. Magnificent polo ponies, each valued at up to $200,000, stumbled from their trailers and crumpled one by one onto the green grass. Vets ran out and poured water over the feverish, splayed-out animals. But it was no use. One dead horse. Then another. Then more. And within a day, 21 horses were dead. 'It Was Heartbreaking' The Palm Beach Post / ZUMA Press 6 photos (( I chose not to show the dying and death photos of these majestic creatures, with their lives ending)) God BLESS EACH OF THEM! May their spirits live in us all! Next Veterinarians said Monday they suspect some sort of toxin caused the deaths of 21 polo horses in Wellington, Fla. The horses from the Venezuelan-owned team Lechuza Caracas got sick just before a scheduled match Sunday. Here, veterinary staff try in vain to save a dying animal. State veterinarians were still performing necropsies but suspect the horses died from heart failure brought on by some sort of toxic reaction in their bodies. Possibly tainted feed, vitamins or supplements. Maybe a combination of the three. While polo club officials and several independent veterinarians insisted the deaths appeared to be accidental, it remained a mystery that puzzled and saddened those close to a sport that has long been a passion of Palm Beach County's ultra-rich. "The players, the owners of the horses were in tears. Bystanders and volunteers were in tears. This was a very tragic thing," said Tony Coppola, 62, an announcer for the International Polo Club Palm Beach in this palm tree-lined town some 15 miles west of the millionaire enclave of Palm Beach. Spectators at the Sunday match had difficulty making out what was happening when the frenzy of workers and trucks hovered around the horse trailers. Soon blue tarps were hung and trailers were shuffled into place to obscure their view. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The match was canceled, replaced by an exhibition game, to keep the crowd busy. Rumors swirled and the death toll climbed. Some horses died on scene. Others were shuttled to clinics for treatment, but there was nothing that could be done. Their fate was sealed. Amen! Amen! Amen! Blessings! Amen! Amen! Amen! All the dead horses were from the Venezuelan-owned team Lechuza Polo, a favorite to win the title at what's described as the World Series of this sport. The team included about 40 thoroughbreds in all, maybe more. The team has not spoken publicly since the deaths, but released a statement late Monday. "This is tragic news. We are deeply concerned about the death of our ponies," the statement read. "We have never encountered such a dire situation like this as our horses receive the most professional and dedicated care possible." The statement said the team does not know the cause of the deaths, but is helping with the investigation. Polo club manager Jimmy Newman said it was like losing half the New York Yankees. "They lost some great horses," he said. Dr. Scott Swerdlin, a veterinarian at Palm Beach Equine Clinic near the polo grounds, treated one of the sick horses. He said it appeared the animals died of heart failure caused by some kind of toxin that could have been in tainted food, vitamins or supplements. "MY HEART CRIES for EACH OF THEM" PLease! Bless them with YOUR Blessings/Spirit/etc...� Also: �A combination of something with an error in something that was given to these horses caused this toxic reaction,� Swerdlin said Monday. * It may take days or weeks to get the results of toxicology tests, he said. John Wash, the polo club�s president of club operations, said doctors had ruled out any sort of airborne infection. �This was an isolated incident involving that one team,� Wash said. �This was devastating,� he added. �It was heartbreaking to see that many horses to get sick all at once.� He said games would resume on Wednesday, with the finals taking place Sunday. The Lechuza team has withdrawn. The team is owned by affluent Venezuelan businessman Victor Vargas, who also plays, but most of the horses and players are Argentine. The team travels most of the year. This is a town of horse clubs, training facilities, stables, polo grounds and wide open fenced fields where the animals roam and graze along straight-line, neatly groomed streets. The club has hosted the U.S. Open for seven years. �It�s just incredible. So unbelievable. The reaction throughout the polo community worldwide is one of disbelief. Disbelief and grief,� said Coppola, the club announcer. Although the value of the horses lost was great, this isn�t a game people play for the money. The owners are already multimillionaires. �You�ve got to have the money to part with,� Newman said. Purses rarely top a few thousand dollars, if any at all. They do it for the pride, for the glory, for the love of the game. �If you win this tournament, you get your name on a trophy,� Newman said. And the respect of your peers. That�s pretty much it. �It�s a lifestyle.� Associated Press writer Sarah Larimer contributed to this report. THIS IS HEARTBREAKING, I'm sorry I shared this, but I wanted their spirits and souls prayed over, THEY NEED IT! To know what their spirits were going through, makes me shutter...��
