RE: Two rescue horses and some Nguni cattle!

in Photography Lovers2 years ago

I did not know that they use donkeys for their hides! Is there a reason for this? Accessibility? Cheaper than a cow? That is just horrific, skinning them alive. My brain cannot process that kind of cruelty. :(

It is so good to see animals being rescued like that, what a difference a caring person makes in their life. I am always on the lookout for neglect, another type of abuse that kills, but, many times, not purposely. Sometimes it is though.

Just like with humans, animals respond to love, especially freely given. I think animals have a sixth sense that tells them who is good and who will harm them.

Thank you for the beautiful pictures of the countryside. Such a lovely place.

Oh yes, we have read some horrible things about the donkey hide trade Lady Denise. Manoy other animals such as the Rhinos are also killed for their horns to be cut off by poachers. A magnificent creature to killed only for its horn that consists of compressed hairs and have no medicinal value whatsoever. Pure cruelty and madness.

I know your heart and at times it is indeed tough. Wherever we sit for coffee in the open and there is a dog about, it will come to me for a smell and a rub !LOLZ

My mom used to say that whenever an animal doesn't like a person, on has to be careful of that person. And a few times I have found it to be true. So yes, animals definitely have that sixth sense.

Only my pleasure to share!

Blessings and thank you for the kind tipu and the vote.
