We make pick-up plans and on the day, we find Velik waiting for us outside, nearby his house.
VELIK, THE GREAT ONE
26 February 2025
In the spring of 2024, a new donkey travels from Ilinden village to join us at the Valley
We are familiar with Velik; he has been involved in our outreach program for the last few years. He lives in the village of Ilinden in a single-occupant household. Man and donkey are both getting to the age where rest is natural so in April, we get a phone call asking if we could take Velik to the Valley and have him spend his later years grazing happily an leading a quiet life.
