Band of Burros Rescue Project

As they say… “Go big or go home”! We’ve adopted that challenge for 2025 with our “Band of Burros Rescue Project”!

 

There was a trial run in 2024, but this year we jump in… up to our eyeballs in asses!

 

T.E.X.A.S. Rescue is heading up a rescue of massive proportions, right here in The Great State of Texas! We were asked by the good folks in Fort Davis, at the Davis Mountain Resort, to help with the capture and relocation of some of their area’s wild burro population. After extensive planning throughout 2024, we are embarking on a rescue project of approximately 200 of these wild, beautiful creatures! As the DMR locals have been trained in humane capture techniques, they will be in charge of the capture locations and catch-pen setup. They know where the burros like to gather, and with us being roughly 8 hours away, it made perfect sense. We are looking to remove burros in small numbered herds of 5-7 at a time. T.E.X.A.S. Rescue will travel to DMR to transport the burros back to our facility where they will be examined by our veterinarians, quarantined for minimum of 14 days, vaccinated, and dewormed. Post-quarantine, our staff will work with some of our Military Veterans and volunteers to begin the gentling process, leading to tamed burros finding forever homes! No longer will they be competing for food, neglect or illness. They will become pets or therapy donkeys, helping others with PTSD, stress, anxiety, autism, special needs, and more… Just as we are already offering with our current Therapy Donkeys!

 

And yes, all of this comes with a significant price tag! But, you can help! T.E.X.A.S. Rescue doesn’t mind doing the hard, dirty work, and you can help us without even getting dirty! Anyone can donate to this project by visiting our website at TexasRescue.org

 

100% of your tax deductible donations will be used for the burros, their training, feed and will help fund this project! By donating $100 or more, we will send you this AMAZING 2O25 Rescue Project t-shirt commemorating this historic program! Donations are the ONLY way to receive this shirt, as they will not be sold ANYWHERE! When you wear your shirt, you can be proud of knowing you helped the animals that helped build Texas!
