Remember Cora & Cosmo, the donkeys we rescued last February after they were brutally attacked by dogs? They traveled 14 hours to reach us in Ceará… and Cora wouldn’t have survived without urgent care.
During their hospitalization, they remained in the same stall for the first month because they were both deeply traumatized. Separating them only caused more distress, so we kept them together to support their healing.
Recently, we noticed changes in Cora…. her belly growing, her behavior shifting… and called in our vet. Though she wasn’t thrilled about the exam, we saw enough to confirm… CORA IS PREGNANT!!!!
She’s already over 10 months along, which means we’re expecting a baby donkey very soon. As always geld all of our male donkeys, and Cosmo was gelded as soon as he was stable enough, but not before fathering one final foal during their hospital stay!
Cora is now on supplements and under close watch as we prepare for a safe, peaceful birth. A new life is coming… and we can’t wait to welcome this little miracle. Stay tuned!
