Mr Ben

A incredible story about a very special donkey named Mr Ben. This charming little guy has certainly captured the hearts of everyone here at Fields of Freedom Animal Sanctuary!

Mr Ben’s journey began when he was just 6 months old, torn away from his mother and destined for the cruel fate of being slaughtered for human consumption. Our hearts ache just thinking about it. However, fate had another plan in store for Mr Ben.

With a twist of luck and a dash of hope, Mr Ben managed to escape this dreadful cycle of becoming someone’s meal. In 2019, he arrived here at the sanctuary, where he found a safe haven and a second chance at life.

His story sheds light on the dark reality of the animal production system. Animals like Mr Ben are bred and raised solely for human consumption, treated as mere commodities. But we have the power to change this!

By choosing a vegan lifestyle and making compassionate choices, we can put an end to these distressing stories. Every decision we make has the potential to reshape the future of animal agriculture. Mr Ben’s story, although filled with sorrow, serves as a reminder that we have the power to make a difference.

Let’s envision a world where stories like Mr Ben’s become a horror of the past. A world where animals are not seen as products, but as sentient beings deserving of love and respect. Together, we can create a more compassionate and sustainable future.
