County initiates two Donkey Land contracts for burrow rescue, population management
Summary
County CEO reported two contracts with Donkey Land effective April 1, 2025: a non‑financial rescue/relocation and a sterilization program for 100 male burrows to support humane population management.
San Bernardino County has initiated two contracts with Donkey Land effective April 1, 2025, the county’s chief executive reported during the Board of Supervisors meeting. The contracts were processed through the county purchasing department, the CEO said.
The first contract is described as a non‑financial agreement to provide rescue and relocation services for injured, sick, orphaned or high‑risk burrows, assuring lifelong care at Donkey Land’s sanctuary for animals that cannot be returned to the wild. The second contract provides funding for the sterilization of 100 male burrows within one year to support humane population management and community safety.
County officials said the partnerships are intended to reflect "local, compassionate, and community focused solutions for managing the wild burrow population in San Bernardino County," and directed residents to the county’s animal care website for more information.
