EVEN CHILDREN engage in this BLOOD-SPORT – blinding horses and donkeys and forcing them to race until they collapse in pain!

Illegal bush horse racing is a terrible scourge in poverty-stricken parts of the Northern Cape in South Africa. In this horrifically cruel “sport,” horses and donkeys are forced to race each other while spectators bet money on who will win. There is zero concern for animal welfare. Horses and donkeys are pushed to the brink, and […]
We were alerted to a dreadful case of donkey cruelty and sent a team to investigate. What they witnessed SHOCKED THEM TO THEIR CORE!

In Tanzania, a huge East African country, donkeys are nothing more than beasts of burden. They are routinely treated with abominable cruelty by local people who do not have the faintest idea of how to treat donkeys, or that they are intelligent creatures who feel pain and suffer just as humans do. Our partner, the Arusha Society for […]
EXTRAORDINARY RELOCATION of 200 DONKEYS (saved from CERTAIN DEATH by the despicable CHINESE donkey skin trade) – in progress NOW!

In mid-August, we asked for your help in raising enough money to transport 200 dreadfully abused donkeys to safety in France. Many of these animals have been rescued from the horrors of the donkey skin trade and are in urgent need of our help right now. We have still not reached our goal – we […]
Beaten. Stabbed. Forced to work. Then, discarded on the roadside and left to die in the dirt. THE HORRIFIC PLIGHT OF DONKEYS, like Lulu!

In Zimbabwe, donkeys endure the most horrific abuse every day. They are forced to work when they are too young to do so and made to carry loads far too heavy for their bodies. They work without rest, water or food, and when they weaken, they are beaten or stabbed to force them to continue. Then, when their bodies […]
Tony the donkey was hit by a car, left to die – and then ATTACKED BY WOLVES!

Hit by a car, blinded and then attacked by wolves, Tony the donkey is a victim three-times over – he is the victim of irresponsible owners, human recklessness and the natural instinct of predators to prey on injured animals. Tony, who likely belonged to the Bedouin community in the Negev Desert, was hit by a car in the […]
EIGHT gentle ponies and a donkey were destined to be KILLED, but…

While the world is war in Ukraine shows us the worst kind of animal abuse, there is room for love and tenderness in Cornwall that is so very worthy of support. If you love horses and ponies, you will be both saddened and happy by what we are about to tell you. Saddened because 6 […]
BLACK MAGIC-practicing ‘holy men’ are torturing horses, goats and cows to death!

The most disgustingly cruel abuse of cows, goats and horses is taking place in the African country of Mali. Unscrupulous black magic-practicing marabouts (‘holy men’) ritually torture cows, drive them into a fire pit and beat them as they burn to death in the flames. Horses have their fetlocks (foot joints) severed, are dumped into a pit and then […]
Two baby donkeys subjected to unspeakable brutality!

Imagine being a terrified young donkey foal, less than a year old, bound with ropes in the baking desert sun, slowly starving to death? This is exactly what happened to two baby donkeys in the Bedouin town of Lakiya in southern Israel. These little guys, who had been subject to such disgusting abuse, were on death’s […]
CRISIS! Against all odds, we SAVED 32 abused horses and three foals from drowning, now they need food and medical care…

At the beginning of February, we rescued 35 wild horses and foals from drowning in a flooded river in Alexander Bay, South Africa. After a dangerous rescue mission, the horses were safely brought to dry land, but they are terribly weak and very hungry. Having spent a week submerged in water, their hooves have begun to rot – plus […]
ANY act of cruelty is unacceptable. But this – SAVAGELY STABBING a BABY DONKEY with a BROKEN BOTTLE! There are NO words!

Donkeys are in crisis all around the world – they are being abused, stolen, traded and slaughtered for their skins. To make this dreadful situation even worse, often donkey owners don’t see them as creatures who can feel pain and suffer – to them, they are just tools. In Bela-Bela, South Africa, donkeys support the livelihoods of many people in […]
