Saturday, May 14 will mark the official opening of The Doris Day Horse Rescue and Adoption Center in Murchison, Texas—an innovative new facility for the rescue, rehabilitation, and rehoming of abused and abandoned horses. In anticipation of the opening, Bloomberg News recently visited the facility:
The Doris Day complex will include an education center, a horse “playground,” and other amenities that suggest refugees will have a very comfortable existence here. Also under construction is a staging area for emergency rescues, where animals can be brought in and cared for after natural disasters.
Bloomberg also toured the neighboring Cleveland Amory Black Beauty Ranch, also set to have an open house on May 14:
Elsewhere roaming freely on the grounds are emus, an ostrich, elands and a camel. In spacious cages there are macaque monkeys frolicking in comfortable retirement, their careers as lab experiments over. A one-armed kangaroo (a boxing injury—don’t ask) is nurtured like a beloved grandfather.
