because he didn't care. because he was 'disposing' of the horses, most of them barren mares, so maybe he thought 'why throw good money after bad'??
if barren mares are kept thin (his words) what are culled mares kept at? evidently they aren't 'kept' at all, but are allowed to starve, become lice-ridden, and aren't wormed or given other care. these horses were neglected, badly, while owned and in the care of paragallo. his responsibility didn't end when he thought he had someone taking them off his hands (a story i find less than believable, i doubt there is a fla farm), but when they actually left his care. because he didn't think they'd be in such bad shape when they got picked up-because he didn't think it would become a story....
you're confusing wealth with caring. the two are NOT synonymous.
