He was finally at peace
The message continued, “Ellie has been returned to the wild. Buried in a special place at Thula where his spirit can roam with the herd.” It was harrowing to see her go, but her short time spent on earth was majorly cruel, so it was almost a sigh of relief to see her no longer suffering and in a better place.
Lucky company
Although Ellie’s time on earth wasn’t the longest, he was lucky to have been found by and cared for by the FTTRO and to have the friendship of Duma. Both kept him happy here during his limited time and loved for much longer than he would have been otherwise.
Rest well, Ellie
It is always nice to see people helping animals in need. Let us learn from this story the importance of being a friend for someone in need. It is always an easier option to ignore and walk away, but much harder to solve each other’s problems. May Ellie’s soul rest in peace.
