#Shoftek!

Hearing coyotes start up in the pitch black, knowing they’re that close, would put anyone on edge, especially after losing the jenny’s baby. It sounds like everyone is safe. You are a real cowgirl who knows how to protect her herd.
And yes, I’m rooting for those jacks tonight. Donkeys are famous for hating coyotes, so if any of them get brave, I think they’re about to learn a hard lesson.
Please be careful if you have to go out to check on anything tonight.

I’ve been thinking about your jenny tonight. Do you think animals grieve the way we do?
I’ve read that a lot of animals seem to. Elephants return to the bones of their dead and touch them gently with their trunks. I also remember a story about a mother orca off the coast of Washington carried her dead calf for weeks across hundreds of miles of ocean, as if she couldn’t let go. You have more experience more than any one I know, what do you think?
