Thought you all would like to see this picture of a 47 year old donkey...

Somebody else sent in a picture of a 50 year old mule...Yikes

 

[Marion at Underwoodfarms]

Isn't he a special boy, just want to hug him

 

[shminifancier]

Yes Hugging like in this pic....Sorry these are fairly big I have already croped them from there original size.

If only they could talk!

.....and wouldnt he have the stories to tell if he could talk! WOW- 47yrs. old. Does anyone have a address of where he is located.....I say, we send him a b-day card from all of the forum friends!! Send me his address and I will do it, just everyone send me there names to put on the card. Wouldnt it be great if they could all live to be almost 50 and healthy!!!!!

 

[JuGGler_j0e]

47??? WOW! He's the biggest I've seen in a while!

Could you gave him another hug for me??

 

[dustyrose]

He looks very huggable, some one give him a BIG hugg for me too

When they live to be that age you know they have been loved and taken care of that's for sure.

I think it would be cool to send him a birthday card.

I also think around the same time this one came into light :bgrin there was a donkey in England (?????) that was 60 yrs old, his name was Laddie... ( I remembered the name because I kept thinking of our dog named Laddie) I havent heard if either one is still alive but I will see if I can find out anything. Corinne

 

[JumpinJackFarm]

I found it....though I am not sure the Old Soul is still alive..

What a Cutie
