A donkey with more humanity than all of us

May 03, 2011 Letters

Dear Editor,
At about 12 midnight on Saturday, a car hit down a donkey on the East Coast Public road just outside Surat’s Drive, Triumph.
The Community Police stopped. The donkey was left sitting on the side of the road as everyone drove away.
Who could I have called to come and see this donkey at that hour? Who would have helped? I waited until it was daylight and went back to see if it was okay. It was lying dead on the side of the road. At that same moment two donkeys came up to it.
One nudged it with its nose and when it did not move, it grabbed it by its ears and tried to pick it up. Then when it did not respond, the donkey stood over the dead one, lifted its head and started to cry/bray loudly. It was mourning its dead.
Humans passed and did nothing but a simple donkey had more humanity and all of us in this uncaring country. Mahatma Gandhiji said that—”The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.”
