Please sign the petition below to stop yet another donkey roping event to be held in Eden, TX on September 29, 2012. At these events, cattle prods are used on the donkey to make it run and then be roped. Donkeys are not built like cattle, their necks will get severely injured, their bones will break, and many will die. This is an extremely cruel event put on to entertain people. It is beyond me how anyone can sit and laugh, teach their children to laugh, at these poor animals. Donkeys are highly intelligent animals, they are loving, loyal, and so sweet. Please help stop this event. You don't have to be a U.S. citizen to sign. About another 6,000 signatures are needed. Thank you so much for caring.

Inger, I appreciate your posting this. I did go to her website and signed the petition. They are such delightful animals, and I think people supporting these events are ignorant of the facts about donkeys. Here is a link to my favorite family of those sweet clowns
