An urgent search is underway for a donkey mare to nurse a foal who has been rejected by his mother. 

A spokesperson for Donegal Donkey Sanctuary said: “He is in urgent need of a foster mother. 

“If someone has a mare who has just lost her foal or maybe has a very quiet mare who would allow a second to feed could you please contact us as soon as possible.”

Anyone who is in a position to help can contact Donegal Donkey Sanctuary via Facebook Messenger, by emailing donegaldonkeysanctuary@gmail.com or by calling 087 219 9977
