Years ago people found Snoopy, Mira's mother in Angochi, in the middle of the road. She was rescued and taken to the Sanctuary; Mira was born there the same year (Febr 27, 2009). Mira's birth was a very special occasion: in nature it is customary with donkeys that the mother hides when the little one is about to be born. And that is also possible at the Sanctuary, because we are splash in the middle of nature there. But when the volunteers were closing up before going home, they saw Snoopy with her new born! And that was fantastic, of course, such a gorgeous baby donkey.
