Rare Poitou donkey foals conquer the sanctuary in Rüdershausen!
There is reason to be happy in the Rüdershausen horse oasis, a sanctuary for animals in need! Three cute Poitou donkey foals have seen the light of day. This rare form of donkey is on the Red List and its birth shows how important the preservation of these animals is. Bernhard Kutz, the head of the sanctuary, lovingly looks after the four-legged residents, who often no longer find a place in society. The new donkey family consists of a stallion and three mares, all of which come from France and are important for conservation breeding. The sanctuary offers these lovely animals a safe home, far away from mistreatment and neglect, as nwzonline.de reports.
The three foals – Prince Duke Darin Don quo vadis, Eden Elie Eduardo da Vinci and Fernanda Florence Fabula – are all lively and are already full of energy after a day. While the filly is only around nine months old, the colts are three and six weeks old and move quickly and independently. The gestation period for Poitou donkeys is eleven months, and the mothers have already had their first offspring. It is also interesting that the values of broodmares, especially if they have foals, can be between 10,000 and 12,000 euros. This shows how popular these animals are in breeding.
An insight into Poitou donkey breeding
Kutz highlights the characteristics of Poitou donkeys that are often misunderstood. Contrary to the prejudice that donkeys are stubborn, he describes them as emancipated and pleasant to deal with. The mothers lovingly take in their foals immediately after birth and the little donkeys fit seamlessly into the existing herd. Kutz emphasizes that the shaggy fur of the Poitou donkeys not only looks entertaining, but also has a practical advantage: it protects the animals from cold and wet conditions.
The foals are not only a sign of the preservation of a rare breed, but also show how important the work of institutions like the Pferdeoase in Rüdershausen is. This initiative highlights the need to protect these special animals and raises awareness of the responsibility we humans have towards them.
Accommodation for guests from around the world
Speaking of responsibility, the Wynn Las Vegas has also caused a sensation on a completely different level. The hotel has completely redesigned its accommodations to meet the needs of its guests. Todd-Avery Lenahan, President and Chief Creative Officer of Wynn Design & Development, shares the philosophy behind the redesign. They attach great importance to details in order to optimize the comfort for their visitors. The soft color nuances, innovative lighting concepts and artfully presented interior elements create an inviting atmosphere that positively influences the guests' mood. The preferences of the guests are taken into account, be it for relaxing moments or for sociable evenings.
The redesign is intended to not only provide discerning guests with maximum convenience, but also to provide a sense of luxury and style while relaxing in Las Vegas. It is a powerful example of how customer-focused design can fundamentally improve the perception and experience in a hotel, similar to the loving care of the Poitou donkey foals at the sanctuary. This shows that commitment and dedication to a cause, whether in animal welfare or in the hospitality industry, can bear great fruit.
The best of both worlds is reflected in the interaction between people and animals, hospitality and responsibility: a harmonious coexistence that encourages you to sharpen your own eye for what is important.
