Someone brought this little goat who was covered in tar.
Suri, a small child, was completely covered from head to toe in hardened tar. It required ten tender hands working many hours to save her precious life.
She was allowed to perish after her owner abandoned her. We don't know how long she had been trapped in the tar, but due to exhaustion, dehydration, and heat stroke, she was nearly unconscious.
Her legs were fused together, and her tail was glued to her thighs. She was only capable of eye movement. She had lost the ability to cry for her mother.
To melt the tar, our group got to work using soap and vegetable oil. Puppies becoming stuck in tar in the past taught us that the hazardous tar takes hours to melt. Suri nearly leaped for delight as the tar's hold on her was finally broken. We also did it.
Watch this moving tale of transforming a possibly horrible death into a lovely new existence.
We had no time to lose.
We moved her into an oil bathtub.
So we could give her pain medicine.
Hands, Hearts, Hope...
