ISPCA rescues six donkeys and two ponies found 'neglected ' in Donegal

When examined by a vet, the animals were found to be in a poor condition, with some thin and infested with lice.

Six donkeys and two ponies have been rescued by the ISPCA in Co Donegal after being discovered living in sheds with no feed.

The operation, involving the ISPCA, the Department of Agriculture and local gardaí, found that the living conditions inside the shed were so bad that the animals had nowhere clean to lay down.
