A mother has a very special relationship with her children. Being a mother myself, I feel this, but itโs not something that I can explain in words. The best way to show you what I mean is through examples.
In the video below, a Belgian draft horse takes care of her two newborn twin foals. Yes, this mother gave birth to twins, which is very rare amongst horses. Needless to say, watching this family interact with each other is simply too cute for words.
Lisa and Fien are only 4-days-old in the video. The camera records them playing around in the green pastures with their beautiful mother. She nurses them and runs around with them before settling down in the grass for some much needed rest.

Towards the end, you see a little girl approach the horses in order to pet them. Belgian draft horses are not only known for their strength, but they are also known for their friendliness and gentleness. The family reacts warmly to the little girl, and the mother lets her touch her babies. Itโs too precious!
The sanctuary staff played a crucial role in ensuring the successful integration of the ducks into their new home.
They carefully guided the ducks into the pond, allowing them to acclimate to their new surroundings at their own pace.
This gentle approach helped the ducks feel secure and confident, ultimately enabling them to join the existing flock without fear of nocturnal predators.
The staffโs patience and care were evident throughout the process.
As the ducks continue to thrive in their new environment, their journey stands as a beacon of hope and resilience.
The sanctuaryโs work is far from over, but the success of this rescue operation is a testament to what can be achieved with dedication and compassion.
For these ducks, the future is now filled with the promise of care, comfort, and, most importantly, the freedom to swim whenever they please.
Their story will undoubtedly inspire others to support and advocate for animal welfare.
Itโs so fun to see their reaction to the water for the first time, watch below!
