Throughout history, horses and donkeys have carried heavy loads for humans, often facing mistreatment.
When animals undertake strenuous tasks for us, it’s vital to treat them with care, allowing them to rest, eat, and sleep.
Unfortunately, this isn’t always the reality. Recently, residents of a village in Chile rushed to aid a donkey that had collapsed under the weight of an excessive load.
The poor animal was found lying on the street, with concerned passersby intervening to prevent a tragic outcome.
Valparaiso, Chile, known for its steep terrain, often relies on donkeys for transporting goods.
However, one donkey in El Liter succumbed to an overloaded burden, leading to its collapse on the street.
City residents witnessed the donkey struggling with the overwhelmingly heavy load day after day.
Soon, a photo circulated depicting the donkey’s distressing collapse, spreading rapidly on social media platforms.
Even reaching the governor of Valparaiso, Maria de los Angeles de la Paz, who condemned the incident as “a despicable act of animal abuse.”
An appeal was issued to locals for information regarding the donkey’s owner.
The lack of regard for this vulnerable animal is appalling. It’s crucial to advocate for abused animals and take action upon witnessing such cruelty!
Help raise awareness by sharing this heartbreaking story, with hopes that the donkey’s owner will be held accountable for their actions.
