A Lonely Journey || The Death Valley Burros
Wild donkeys are not everyone's cup of tea. But growing up, I always had a soft spot for such creatures.
Only recently, a hiker's life was saved by a pack of burros in Death Valley. The lone hiker had fallen victim to the demands of peak summer conditions, and developed rhabdomyolysis. Isolated and hopeless, the hiker observed a pack of feral donkeys and followed their tracks. The donkeys led the man to a vital water source, which sustained the hiker for 7 days before being rescued by rangers.
2018 has seen the mission to remove feral donkeys from the park and relocate them to sanctuaries elsewhere.
