This year's so-called Celebration produced a higher number of incidents of abuse by soring than last year's event. That does not mean there is more abuse taking place. It could just mean the more light shining on this formerly secretive industry (secretive for obvious reasons--because some trainers and owners are torturing animals), the less abusers are able to hide in the shadows.
