A couple of years ago, I wrote a post about a zebra named Evidence. He had been found outside of Atlanta - he had fallen off a truck then hit by a car. He was sent to Noah's Ark, south of Atlanta, where he was treated and found a permanent home.
I learned today that Evidence died a short time ago. During a surgery, immediately after he had been found, to repair a severed urethra, a stent had been placed. This stent failed, urine backed up, and a massive body-wide infection occurred. It happened very quickly. He was being transported back to Auburn University but died during the trip.
Noah's Ark is a special place that takes in unwanted animals and gives them a loving home. They also have children living there who need love and attention and need to learn how to trust again.
I guess I'm just a sucker for animals. I hate to hear that an animal had been mistreated or hurt. I'm so thankful for places like Noah's Ark that will help these animals. I'm sure everyone there misses Evidence - he made quite an impression in his three short years.
RIP Evidence.

Oh poor Evidence! I remember when you posted about this poor zebra. Poor thing!
Poor guy. Hopefully, he had several years of happiness in his adopted home. Noah's Ark sounds like a very worthy organization.
I went to an open house at the SPCA yesterday. I think I am going to be a volunteer there. It has a no-kill policy, thank God.
