In July of 2023, Oscar’s Place made an emergency trip to Texas to rescue pairs of moms and babies held at the auction grounds. While we were there, we found a BIG surprise in the auction holding pens: two beautiful mammoth donkey sisters. As their name suggests, mammoths are the largest type of donkeys. They typically weigh around 1,000 pounds, about double the size of standard donkeys. 

Both were HUGE donkeys, very pregnant, and very sick. We knew that we had to rescue this bonded pair so that we could keep them — and their future family — together.  A donor named the pair Beatrice and Sylvia.

Both were fighting wounds, nasal discharge, and possible lung infections. As big as their bellies were for being late in their pregnancies, Beatrice and Sylvia were both extremely malnourished. The race against time to get weight on them, clear up their infections, and help them deliver healthy foals was on. They learned to start trusting humans and they both gave birth to healthy babies. We are so happy that these mammoth sisters are here, and that they will have the chance to grow old together with their babies as one happy family.
