Their future, your legacy
There are more than 60 million donkeys and mules around the world. Many of them need protection and special care after a life of suffering.
In Spain there are many cases of abuse and neglect to equine animals and current laws against this type of animal abuse and the enforcement are almost non-existent. Donkeys and mules are left to die of hunger, abandoned, and exploited to death or denigrated in popular ceremonies. It is expected that they will need our help in the next 20, 30 and 40 years to come.
Our actions in the next years will write their future and the future of following generations, and this is why our work is now more important than ever.
Luckily more and more people are committed to defending the most vulnerable and they decide to help us even after they are gone by leaving a legacy to El Refugio del Burrito in their will. Our work against injustice speaks volumes. Currently, we care of over 200 donkeys and mules at our sanctuaries and work towards the improvement of their legal protection as well as aim to expand clinical and expert knowledges about donkey welfare.
