About Roma

Roma had a hard start in life. She was a young foal when she came into our care after a dramatic rescue. On routine work in Galway, one of our Donkey Welfare Advisers was shocked to discover Roma stuck in a water filled hollow in a bog.

An urgent veterinary visit followed where Roma was treated for shock and hypothermia before she was brought to our sanctuary in Liscarroll.

A loyal and true friend

Roma is a gentle and beautiful young donkey. Her coat is so shiny and soft to touch. She is great friends with fellow adoption donkey Mary and is the quieter of the two donkeys and she is a loyal and true friend.

Since her arrival here, Roma's gentle personality has become apparent. At first the little donkey was nervous but soon, she came to trust our grooms and she truly blossomed.
