                                         BRUMBIE FOAL SUFFERS AFTER STRUGGLING WITH NO MUM

This poor little girl was found in the bush by a caring person. She was brought to us here at S.M.A.R.T in a bad way. Luckily our horse expert (Dawn) took her in and she is now getting stronger and having regular feeds.  We have a problem here in the Snowy's with our beautiful Brumbies. Someone out there is shooting the mothers and taking the foal. Most of the mothers that have been found are gut shot and die in horrible pain. These animals don't deserve to be treated like this. This foal could hardly stand when she came in. This is only one of the 5 that have we know of that have been found over the last couple of months. It's a terrifying existence out there for these horses, and whether you like brumbies or not, to shoot them and leave them to slowly die is cruelty at the most.
