The association PAZ (Paris Animaux Zoopolis) claims that the City, under the guise of ecology, uses ponies as draft horses. The horses have several daily breaks.

Every weekend they are completely resting in a meadow. And enjoy several weeks a year of total rest in Seine-et-Marne. As well as a "peaceful" retirement with associations or individuals. But PAZ doesn't go out of style: "Equines are neither toys nor agricultural tools."
