Authorities say five horses found dead in a pasture near Tracy appeared to have died of thirst.
San Joaquin County deputies say the horses were left without water in 90-degree temperatures for at least three days before being found in the pasture in an unincorporated area near Tracy.
Sheriff's spokesman Les Garcia says the horses were noticed Thursday morning by a motorist. Garcia says that the horses had food, but their water trough was empty.
Two other dehydrated horses were found alive and taken to an animal hospital. A veterinarian says one horse is in good condition, but described the condition of the second horse as "touch and go."
Garcia says the horses' owner showed up Thursday afternoon and was questioned by authorities.
