A sad day

Yesterday, we went to collect this beautiful little boy.  We left in a hurry, very concerned about his health.  His mom had been shot and we knew that he had a shoulder wound.  We took him directly to the vet and arrived home with an antiboitic and pain killer which we gave him right away.  The poor little boy was very weak, dehydrated and in pain, so we were anxious to get him to Bambelela as soon as possible.  We managed to pursuade him to drink a little before meeting a volunteer from Bambelela half way to hand him over. 

This morning, we were all very saddened to hear that he had died during the night, from his wounds.  Later Bambelela informed us that he still had a bullet in his shoulder, no wonder he was in so much pain.  At least he is with his mommy now and no longer in pain.
