Ear, Bray, #Goals Pt. 2

In this episode we get to chat with founder, Andrea Durham of Long Ears Rescue! We learn about how her love for donkeys and mules started and what led to her journey into the world of rescue. We also dive into the "behind the scenes" work that comes with rescue and share some really sweet moments of how long ears change lives!   In this episode Andrea touches on the "skin/hide trade" for donkeys being used in traditional Chinese medicine. The realities of this can be difficult to hear and see, but we feel it is important to educate ourselves on the realities of horse and donkey exportation from the US and slaughter. This article: https://thehorse.com/184008/donkey-skin-trade-threatens-welfare-populations-worldwide/ from "The Horse" covers the broad strokes of the stakeholders involved. It also discusses legislation such as the SAFE act and laboratory alternatives to donkey hides. We also find this fact sheet https://www.horsesinourhands.org/fact-sheet  by "Horses in Our Hands" helpful to debunk some of the controversies regarding horse and donkey slaughter.  If you would like to donate and/or support Long Ears Rescue, check out all the information below!  Amazon wish list- https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/1W4N1WNMB7EOH?ref_=wl_share   Instagram- @longearrescue Website-https://longearrescue.com/  Facebook- https://www.facebook.com/Long-Ear-Rescue-343507539653548  Paypal- https://www.paypal.com/donate/?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=R9FBRZY37FL28  ~If you love our podcast, please be sure to rate, review and subscribe from your favorite podcast platform!   ~To get more Ear, Bray, Love content, please visit us on instagram at @earbraylovepodcast You can also visit Sam at @fiercerootsfarm and Katy at @stickeyhollerfarm  ~Have topics you would like us to cover?
