Pet Blessing Devotion... My Animal Friends are God's love in expression. From the tiniest Amoeba to the largest Whale, every living creature has a place in the World. Some help keep Nature in balance, some provide sustenance for others, some help us learn more about ourselves, and others become treasured companions. When I laugh at the antics of a Squirrel playing in a tree, observe a Mother Cat nursing her Kittens, or admire a newborn Foal sprinting across a field, I see God and give thanks. I Bless these creatures for the joy they are. I show my appreciation by doing my part to preserve the environment in which they live. With a prayer of thanksgiving, I Bless the remarkable Animals that share this planet with me. In wisdom you have made them all; the earth is full of your creatures. Psalm 104:24
Dear DonkeyLand Angels,
DonkeyLand was founded in 2004. My Family and I have funded the Rescue, in no way am I saying it was easy but God provided. I sold 2 Company's that I owned, we have NEVER said no to any Animal in need and we NEVER turned to anyone for help other than the Law Enforcement, local Police Officers and Riverside County Department of Animal Services which I might add have been very supportive and FABULOUS to work with. In 2010 we became an IRS recognized 501(c)(3) Non-Profit Charitable Organization because of the large undertaking. I am grateful to the people who have caught the vision and supported us in one way or another, you're our Angels!
TODAY, I turn to you because I need HELP from the Community to work together on behalf of the Wild Burros to help keep them safe and to keep an eye out. These are not my Wild Burros, they are God's Animals, put here for whatever reason and however it happened, the fact is that they are here and we as a Community need to keep an eye out, celebrate their life and their Freedom and be the voice for them.
Please understand that I do not want to cause a panic for all those whom love the Wild Burros, its just to the point where we need answers, many Newborn Baby's are MISSING... however pertaining to this situation, I never said they were taken, sold or eaten, I said they are MISSING and that has been enough for me to take action. I have set up Security Cameras in a few locations that our team and the local neighbors can watch live or playback to monitor the Herds of Wild Burros in our City. I am a firm believer in FACTS and without proof, of what is happening, nothing can be done. I can accept nature being the culprit, don't like it but accept it.
In the past I had spent at least 4 months sleeping in my car on the dirt road at night, rotating shifts in the barn, to care for Donkeys and Wild Burros that were at our Rescue Center. It was a 24 hour a day around the clock responsibility helping SAVE the Burros lives. My Family did not have to do it, we choose to do it and we would do it again and again to help any Animal in need. I say this to point out that the Herd and all the Baby's born at that time, in the Wild are still accounted for with the exception of a few Wild Burros who sadly got hit by a car and killed on the side of the road. Yes there were Coyotes and Bobcats I regularly filmed and not once did they ever bother the Wild Burros. Not to say they wouldn't because since 2004 we had only received one call from Grand Terrace of a Baby Wild Burro that was attacked by Coyotes. At times, when a Wild Burro has sadly gotten killed by a car on the side of the road, a few of the body's were eaten by a predator, only after it was killed by a car.
The Wild Burros are California's ONLY Herd on Private Property. Where else can you go and take a walk out your front door and see these amazing innocent Burros, after a stressful day at School or a long hard day at Work. The beautiful Wild Burros have been therapy for people who have been told by Doctors that they only have a few years left on earth. The Wild Burros gave hope to 2 little girls, age 4 and 6 that have no Mommy so their Dad takes them out to watch the Wild Burros. A Woman with Cancer is told she only has a few years left on earth. She loves the Burros and looks forward to seeing them after her Chemotherapy. They are not a nuisance, they are a BLESSING. After all, this was their Land prior to residential home development, therefore, as we continue to grow in population and dwell here with them, lets vow to continue to be the voice for them, Preserve their Land and Protect their Freedom. May God Bless you for having a heart for his precious innocent Donkeys and Wild Burros that bear a cross on their back. HELP leave a Legacy to Wildlife!
