Ab & Thea Tuinman adopted Maartje, not to be confused by Maartje their daughter who came to Aruba in March and is helping out at the sanctuary as a volunteer for a couple of days a week. How big is the chance that we have a donkey with a Dutch name? Maartje the donkey is BFF with Gerardo, both are the least dominant donkeys we have. They live in a separate area where they have a bigger chance to eat.

Thanks to our sponsors!
