A desperate fight to keep 15 ponies alive through winter!
We are fighting to keep alive 12 adult ponies and three babies who faced being shot in England. Twelve ponies (we call them the Dartmoor Dozen) were hapless victims when their owner was evicted from his land. He had no money to feed the ponies and so they were starving. Another pony called Chocolate was so […]
Wild horses forced to swallow packets of cocaine and heroin!
Our hearts break at what we must tell you about today – we would be so grateful if you could help save these precious lives… Beautiful wild horses are being forced by drug smugglers to ferry cocaine, heroin and diamonds across the Orange River border between Namibia and South Africa and are dying hideous deaths because of it. […]
Maimed and emaciated donkeys need your help!
Bela Bela in South Africa is a place of horror for donkeys. It’s a place where a monster hacked off a donkey’s hind legs and left the poor creature to drag itself to a lingering death. And it’s a place where donkeys are literally worked to death because it is cheaper to breed a new donkey than to care […]
Frightened, starved, abused… tortured, maimed and left to die – the “life” of a Bela Bela donkey!
Bela Bela in South Africa is an impoverished, forgotten community, rampant with crime, drugs and violence. Donkeys there are continuously mistreated, overworked and abused. We urgently need your support to help them! People are so poor they overload donkey carts and use painful, makeshift harnesses that cause the donkeys terrible injuries. Many of the donkeys suffer […]

This horse fighting raid came to a totally unexpected conclusion!
Horse fighting in the Philippines is one of the most gruesome events on this planet. If we rest… if we falter… if a lack of resources sees us miss even a single opportunity to shut down a fight and make our presence known, animals WILL suffer – and some will die. As you read about […]
Mother and foal collapse after barbaric bush race!
A terrible scourge of bush racing is sweeping through rural South Africa, causing enormous suffering for horses. With your help, we can fight it and save countless horses (and foals) from excruciating suffering and death. In the Gouda area in the Western Cape, horses are stolen and abused by delinquent children who outrageously mishandle them in illegal races. Horses […]
URGENT! 24 hours left to save 250 donkeys from starvation!
The Karoo Donkey Sanctuary, where we support 250 donkeys rescued from the Chinese donkey skin trade, is in a corona crisis! South Africa is going into total lockdown and the only fodder supplier in this remote area is closing. We have 24 hours to secure food, or donkeys could starve! If we can raise $10,000 (£8,700) to buy the […]
Cruel children separate baby donkey from mother and ABUSE HER!
Let us get straight to the point of this URGENT appeal: your help is needed now! We have nowhere else to turn. In Israel, a haven for abused horses and donkeys is being forced to close. Innocent lives are in danger because they are being evicted from their sanctuary. The animals have been safe and loved at the Starting Over shelter […]
We SAVED THEM BOTH. But there are more in desperate need!
Surely you remember our recent message about one of the most sickening situations we have ever witnessed. The images are impossible to forget! A few weeks ago, in the poverty-stricken community of Bela Bela in South Africa, we encountered an act of such terrible cruelty it makes us shudder to think of it. A monster had hacked […]
