After an exhaustive multi-day search for a beloved miniature donkey missing from his Bragg Creek home, Goliath has been found deceased.
"At 5:30pm, drone operator Dominic started to check the land by air while 2 dear clients set off to walk the land," reads a social media post by Dr. Judith Samson-French, the owner of Goliath.
"Goliath was sadly found dead with puncture wounds in his throat and 3/4 buried with soil and branches - likely a cougar kill."
Samson-French says Goliath enjoyed 25 wonderful years at Banded Peak Vet Hospital, and they have taken measures to move the four donkeys Goliath lived with to a safer location.
"Thank you everyone from the bottom of my heart for your good wishes, shares, and help - the world is truly a better place because of all of you!"
