Growing up at the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary

Our herd of donkeys arrived at the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary in May after they were abandoned at a holiday lodge that closed. A donkey pregnancy can last up to 14 months and so our family has grown from 6 to 8 with the births of a little boy Nugget (in December) and little girl Eeyore (in February). The donkeys roam freely around several hundred acres of the sanctuary, sometimes they will be seen way in the distance up on the hillside and the next peering in the windows where you are working, or nonchalantly grazing alongside one of the lion or tiger habitats. They move as one and even wander through the barns and staff village if doors are left open. Nugget and the very playful (unlike her storybook namesake) Eeyore have a safe, peaceful home to grow up in together. They have their whole lives ahead of them – please help support their care.
