Search Underway for Stolen Horse with Special Dietary Restrictions
New York State police are currently on the lookout for a stolen horse named Koda, who was taken from an upstate farm last week. Koda has special dietary restrictions that are crucial for his well-being.
Described as a neutered male, or gelding, Koda is a flea-bitten grey color with flecks of red and a darker muzzle according to state troopers.
Koda has two distinct brands that can help identify him – a Roman letter L on the front left shoulder and an arrow pointing upward with a line underneath on the rear left flank.
The theft occurred at a farm in the Endicott and Union area, where Koda was taken from an enclosure on the property.
If you have any information on Koda’s whereabouts, please contact the police at 607-561-7400 and reference case NY2500671337.
While horse theft may sound like a thing of the past, incidents still occur. In recent years, there have been cases such as an Amish horse and buggy stolen from a Michigan Walmart, as well as a tragic incident near a Dallas freeway involving stolen horses. In a particularly gruesome case in St. Petersburg, Florida, a stolen championship horse was not only taken but later found butchered.
