Students, at least where I grew up and went to school, do not furnish the bucking stock. Bucking horses have an easier life than most animals, and are even better off than backyard pets/pasture ornaments. And YES, they are bred for bucking. The well-padded strap that is used on them merely encourages them to kick out when they buck. As for the reason the horses were stolen, I'd say it is probably 99% sure that they were stolen to run through a meat sale. The poor horses are likely already on the way to France. Big whoop you've seen a rodeo on TV and have concluded that it is "cruel". You should actually learn about something, before spouting your mouth off about it. Hell, I've seen at least one Jennifer on TV, should I surmise that All Jennifers are idiots, too?
