Hillary The Donkey Finally Rescued After 2 Years Stranded Alone On Island
Hillary the donkey has finally gotten a lift off of her lonely island and is slated to eventually join a new herd.
After being stranded alone on a small patch of land in the middle of a California lake for around two years, the wild equine has been rescued and is settling in at a facility near Sacramento that is run by Texas-based nonprofit Peaceful Valley Donkey Rescue.
“She has her own quarantine pen so we can have her examined by a vet and have tests run,” PVDR spokesperson Jessica Anselment told HuffPost in an email.
Hillary, who has some kind of front leg injury, “will eventually be moved in with our special needs residents,” Anselment said. The plan is for her to then stay with that herd permanently.
Hillary’s removal from the island was a success despite some unexpected hitches involving geese and a lack of cooperation on the donkey’s part, The San Francisco Chronicle reported Friday.

Of a few good people.
There are many good folks here who would do this.
Hope Hillary's well and happy now - she's a very sweet looking donkey... but aren't they all.
And hope your donkey kids are well, Bayard.
