  • The Bastard of Bullas, Spain – video of second rescue –

    Further report on the second Bullas rescue earlier this year. Owner and perpetrator of all this cruelty is the creature in the white hat and moustache (I won’t call him human!), taken away by the Guardia Civil, denounced and to be prosecuted. The animals are in the care of Scooby, the goats remained on the site looked after by a great young man who is doing a wonderful job (there was nowhere else to take them at short notice).

    Please remember Scooby can’t do all this without your help – they rely on donations for feed and vet fees etc. and eventually adoption of the animals.
