Snowy

Snowy’s journey into this world was not an easy one. Born one of twins on Easter Sunday 2019, it was bitterly cold, windy and there had been a deluge of rain all day. Greeted by a doting mother who cleaned and cared for him, although try as he might, the little baby boy was unable to stand. Little lambs who can’t stand usually face a zero percent chance of survival and devastatingly, his passing would have meant that he joined over 15 million Lambs who perish due to birth complications and exposure in Australia alone every year. Thankfully a guardian angel appeared and his destiny was altered forever.
For 4 weeks she fed, loved and doted on Snowy around the clock, performing daily physio and working hard with this sweet little lamb to bring his legs to life. Before long he was walking, and then walking turned into zooming, until one day he was just too big for her unit and he was ready for a new forever home. The day he arrived, without even knowing it, Snowy joined forces with us to create Shear Existence Sanctuary. He shone a light onto the plight of farmed animals and inspired us into action.
These days Snowy is accepted as the calm and confident leader of the main Sheep flock.
