Sign: Justice for Donkey Tied to a Truck and Dragged Down the Road (Graphic Violence)

Lady Freethinker.org


Toby the donkey endured unimaginable cruelty in Dominica when he was tied to a truck with a rope and dragged for over three kilometers down a road - tearing off so much flesh that muscle and bone were exposed, and leaving him with broken ribs and legs.

Once he was rushed to Saint Nicholas Animal Rescue (SNAR) to receive veterinary care, it was also discovered that he had bone fragments poking through his skin, deep lacerations on his muscles, soft tissue damage, and significant blood loss.

"The level of pain and suffering associated with these injuries is significant and would be very difficult to manage," the veterinary report stated.

For nearly seven weeks, Toby received care and treatment for his devastating injuries -- but sadly, the damage was too severe, and he did not survive.

An individual has been charged with animal abuse and neglect.

Sign our petition urging officials in Dominica to treat this case with the severity it deserves so that no other animals are subjected to a similar horrific fate.
