STOP GLANDERS IN BAHRAIN
Sign Now
Glanders is a highly contagious disease which has surfaced in the Kingdom of Bahrain recently. It threatens to wipe-out the equine industry and poses a danger to public health. Glanders can be fatal in horses, mules and donkeys. Infection can also occur in dogs, cats, goats and camels.
People can contract glanders by having direct contact with infected animals or contaminated objects.
We, the undersigned, request that the Bahrain Government take into serious consideration the requests made by all concerned in our attached petition. We ask the following measures and mandatory rules be put into place
Enforce and police a complete ban on the movement and transportation of horses and donkeys in the Kingdom of Bahrain
Prohibit all equine sporting events including all racing, hacking, and walking outside of stables until the glanders disease is eradicated or under control
Provide rules and guidelines for stable owners to follow to prevent the further spread of the glanders disease
Establish a temporary quarantine station where horses infected with glanders can be moved to be monitored and treated (maybe Endurance Village)
Implement a comprehensive glanders prevention program including public awareness campaigns, information for grooms and stable owners, instructional materials, and a government hotline for public enquiries and reporting
Ensure that there is accurate information and transparent reporting of infected horses and blood test results
Ensure that the likelihood of another Glanders outbreak is minimized by having the means to take appropriate and immediate steps to activate disease eradication efforts.

Bahrain will be measured by its commitment to the fauna that share our Kingdom. So far we have a failing grade.
