On 11 September, a special animal-friendly meeting awaits families and all interested persons in Fonyód: the Pácana at Palánkvár We can get to know him in person. Fokite and Bettina"Are we there yet?" The donkeys of the Animal Protection Foundation.
The program is not just petting animals. The focus of this meeting is the responsible relationship with animals, care and animal protection. The participants can meet closely with the two donkeys, while they can ask the foundation staff about animal husbandry, animals saved and what responsible animal protection means every day.
Meet Foki and Bettina in Fonyód
Foki and Bettina are not only the main players of this program, but they also give a good deal to bring both children and adults closer to donkeys. These animals are intelligent, sensitive and capable of forming strong social relationships. Personal encounter can give us much more than a book or screen video: we can monitor their behavior, reactions and how they communicate with people from close proximity.
The organizers are very excited about the questions. Thus, the event can be a good choice for families who want children to learn about animals through experience, but also for those who are generally interested in animal rescue and responsible livestock management.
Animal protection, clearly, with personal contact
"Are we there yet?" The Animal Protection Foundation also shares its own experience with interested parties on the programme. One of the main messages on this poster is based on: "Little steps, bigger world for animals!" In many cases, responsible animal husbandry does start with small, ordinary decisions, whether it is appropriate to take care of the animals, understand the needs of the animals or help an animal in distress.
The meeting can therefore be a nice afternoon family program and an approach-forming event at the same time. It does not require prior animal protection knowledge: the point is to ask questions, talk and get a personal experience.
