What To Know About Mortality Coverage while you ship your horse
There are two types of base mortality coverages available for horses: Full Mortality and Specified Perils
Full Mortality coverage responds to all causes of loss, excluding any ailments specifically excluded (pre-existing conditions mainly) and qualification for the coverage depends on the age of the animal and other criteria.
Basic perils coverage protects you from loss due to specific accidental causes including collision and derailment or overturn of vehicles, including loading and unloading.
These coverages would respond should your horse be injured in a trailering accident while within Canada or the USA.
