List of equine fatalities in the Grand National - Wikipedia

According to the British Horseracing Authority, modern steeplechase races have an average of just over 4 equine fatalities for every 1,000 horses taking part in a race.[1] The Aintree Grand National yielded 7 equine fatalities out of 439 horses taking part between 2000 and 2010, a rate of almost 16 equine fatalities per 1,000 horses taking part (or 0.64 fatalities per race of 40 horses). In the five years to 2023, the fatality rate has risen by one-third, averaging 25 equine fatalities per 1,000 horses taking part (or one fatality per race of 40 horses).[2][3]

How many d'ya reckon this year? I have this crazy friend who says it's wrong to exploit horses to make money and entertain drunken gamblers. Is he crazy?

Creating communities

If I'm registered on a particular instance, say feddit.uk and I want to create a new community but it doesn't particularly fit on the instance on which I'm registered, am I able to create a community on a separate instance, say lemmy.world or do I have to first register an account on lemmy.world?
