Ranger

I am afraid I have some sad news.  Ranger, the orphan brumby foal I have been feeding, died today.  He died from an inguinal hernia, which means that the passages for his arteries through his abdomen into his groin were abnormally large and his intestines were able to get through.  There was nothing we could do to save him.  I guess it is important to remeber that while he was with us he had a good life.  And I will miss him.

    we were very sad to read about Ranger.
    At least he knew you loved him & he didn't die scared alone, wondering where his mum was. you did a great job caring for him.
    Sky is doing well, he's been helping us spread the pile of sand for his games yard.
