  • Thanks for this. Helpful comment.

    Question: Can someone report anonymously to a non emergency number?

    I mean I get you probably shouldn’t call animal control or something, but if someone just really does not want to involve themselves with police/emergency services, is there a better option?

    I helped open a community center in my hometown. We had more than a handful of volunteers who were brought up with a “no 911” mindset.

    I guess I’m just curious if there’s an option for folks who are just flat out opposed.

    Pay phone is anonymous answer, but the finger condom requirement will likely yield laziness.


















  • I grew up on farm & we had two donkeys, Honeybun & Buttercup. Buttercup was older & eventually passed away, leaving Honeybun solo amongst the chickens, cows & horses.

    Honeybun became ornery as all get out, just mean as hell. He’d started to bite anything close enough to be bitten. These weren’t little nips for attention; he’d draw blood given chance.

    It got bad enough my grandfather carried a potato soaked in hot sauce to deter the donkey from biting. Grandpa would try to shove the potato into the donkey’s mouth when Honeybun went in to bite.

    I know some donkeys get along well with horses. Honeybun did not. He bit those horses, went after chickens that wandered into his area, & likely would’ve done the same to cows if we’d let him.

    I don’t have any specific advice for you, but I do believe donkeys get lonely & need some measure of companionship.
