donkey sanctuary bonaire

我丈夫和我去参观了博内尔岛驴保护区,我们玩的很开心。我们对他们有了更多的了解,这儿的工作人员给了这些驴安全的生存环境。他们拯救了将近500只驴,这些驴都是被丢弃在岛屿上的。我们买了门票(很便宜),开车进去,买了些胡萝卜去喂这些驴。很有意思,很令人难忘。

这正是我们最想体验的好旅途。我们很高兴能够来到这里旅游。这的导游非常热情友善,为我们介绍了非常不错的景点。我们玩的很开心。我们还吃到许多美妙可口的美食。我们这次玩的很开心,离开的时候还有一点儿不舍。我们下次肯定还会再来的,我们还会带上孩子一起来这里。

在这个公园,共计有几百头(400至500头)毛驴在这里安家,它们在这里出生,在这里受到照料。道路都是泥土小道,而且到处都是毛驴,所以你不能开得特别快。它们跟着汽车,在旁边慢跑,如果你打开窗户,它们会把头伸进车窗,想和你一起乘车。在特殊情况下,一两头毛驴会被栓在一辆小型二轮拉车上,孩子们可以坐在上面兜风:这个主要是为残疾人士准备的。这是一个非常有价值的项目,因为开着车绕着这个岛屿行驶的时候,你会看到有些毛驴的状态相当糟糕。干得不错,再接再厉。

这是一次出乎意料,让人记忆深刻的探险。Marina在入口处问候了我们,并告诉我们岛上的历史,以及岛上驴子总数的现状。这是一次驾车游,你可以买胡萝卜喂它们。驴子特别喜欢把口鼻伸到车里,会在你开车经过的时候随着你奔跑。这是一次真的值得尽力去保护这些温和的动物,Marina是一个现代圣徒。

The Donkey Sanctuary is such an amazing place, and I love all that they're doing to protect the donkeys and offer a safe living environment. First stop is the nursery, with Moms & babies - you've got to love the little ones! Make sure you've got plenty of carrots before you head out to the main sanctuary. Your truck will be swarmed by donkeys expecting a treat and I just laughed the entire time we were handing out carrots. We go to visit during every year we're on Bonaire. Priceless!

Very knowledgeable staff that make the visit fun. Get some carrots and feed the donkeys, but you may want to get out of the car first as they will not leave you alone after. The little ones like people, the bigger ones like carrots. Very fun little side trip.

Thank you for your nice revieuw and we hope to seen you againKind regards Marion Jeursen

You can drive in and feed the donkeys. It was nice to see people volunteering and caring for the donkeys. Currently the sanctuary has approximately 600 donkeys. I thought it was a nice way to give a contribution towards a worthy cause....

I'll start by saying that if your significant other loves animals AND has little self-control, you almost cannot bring enough carrots (you can also buy them there). Now back to business. This is a very cool concept. Wild donkeys are brought here when they are injured, when they are a "problem" to landowners or otherwise unwanted. The staff really seem to love these animals, and why not? They are friendly and cute, in their own way. There is a "nursery" for young donkeys and their moms that you can enter. Just stay away from the babies so mom doesn't get nervous. The trip around the loop is interesting. The donkeys have been socialized to approach the cars for carrots. They will even walk in front of the car to block your way. You have to just creep along to avoid hurting one. Did I say bring carrots. They will stick their heads all the way into the vehicle to get them. Sadly, we only brought a kilo and they were gone within 10 minutes leaving 90% of the donkeys who inhabit the rest of the loop with no carrots. So, either bring 5 or 10 kilos or break some hearts early and save some for the donkeys down the line. It was lots of fun and a good 1-2 hour diversion.

When in Bonaire, one of the must-see places is the donkey sanctuary. The story of donkeys on the island is a sad one and the donkey sanctuary is determined to turn it into a happy one. You will be very impressed by the energy, enthusiasm, compassion and hard work that go into helping these beautiful animals whose only natural predator is cars. We were in awe of the founder and the young volunteers. It is such a joy to see that there are folks who so deeply care about the nature and the animals. It was a heart-warming experience and it is definitely a must see.

Thank you for your kind revieuwMarion Jeursen en all the donkeys in the Sanctuary!

This is our second trip to the Donkey Sanctuary in Bonaire - it's so much fun to drive through and feed the donkeys!! You could buy a bag of carrots for $3 and feed the donkeys as you drive through. They all come to the car and it's a bit overwhelming when they stick their head in the car, but they're pretty gentle and very hungry!! After driving through, you could go into the fenced area where they have the babies and talk to the volunteers...it was a lot of fun and very interesting!

The Donkey sanctuary was founded to rescue wild donkeys on the island that had been injured in car accidents, or colts who lost their mothers to collisions. They now have about 400 (out of a total population of 550) donkeys on site. For a modest contribution, you can drive through the sanctuary and interact with the donkeys. They offer a big bag of carrots -- absolutely take them up on the offer.The donkeys know very well that a vehicle nearby is likely to have carrots aboard -- and you will get lots of love from eager carrot-eaters. Heads poking through car windows, donkeys trotting alongside as you drive (slowly!) through the sanctuary. We happened to visit during their normal hay-feeding time, and laughed loud at donkeys trying to scarf up carrots while they preserved a mouth full of hay.There is a special paddock devoted to new mothers and their colts. The young ones are as cute as pins, and very friendly.Truly, the work that the sanctuary does is heartwarming. They have a plan that should, in time, end the wild donkey population. Considering how much suffering the wild donkeys endure, that is a very worthwhile goal.

Had a ton of fun feeding carrots to hundreds of donkeys. They are very well cared for, and the place is run really well. They also have a bunch of tortoises!

We had a blast with the donkey's....but know if you give them a carrot from your car be prepared for the donkey love fest with as many heads as they can put into your car. They smell the carrots! We would for sure do this again. The people that work there are extremely nice and knowledgeable about the babies, teens and the seniors. Go! so fun.
