Thanks for the information and great photos.<br /><br />Howling for Justice is a very interesting blog. I have to admit it is the wolves that really captured my interest.

Unfortunately one of them had such a strong frustrated maternal instinct that it kidnapped a lamb and almost killed its mother. We had a a shocking time sorting out the problem and the donkeys were passed on where they could do no more damage.<br /><br />I noticed on your comment at Meda's that you also have been experiencing problems with blogger. I could say blogger had been a cow lately, except that that would be maligning cows and they are such intelligent and restful creatures.Arijahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03720793296992474762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5435521207575893989.post-80414228666081812242010-07-11T15:54:24.032-04:002010-07-11T15:54:24.032-04:00I really enjoyed meeting Paco and Eyeore.

Now I do!!!!!!<br /><br />Thanks for such an interesting post.... And to think that they help keep the flies off of the horses.

It looks almost like a necklace. I've never seen anything like it before, it almost looks painted on. The other blog is very good!! It has real fancy, prettified donkeys. And I love that one shot of the human baby and the donkey baby! I never would have figured that a donkey would win in a fight with a coyote or jaguar, though! Especially when I think of shows where large cats take down huge wildebeasts and animals much bigger than they are. I don't know how that man can keep both his dogs and the donkey.Ginny Hartzlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09329131153403895625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5435521207575893989.post-61623104456160049262010-07-10T08:42:14.125-04:002010-07-10T08:42:14.125-04:00Mules, Donkeys, Burros...And whatever, I don't...Mules, Donkeys, Burros...And whatever, I don't know the difference.
