Ismael Fernández broke down in tears while reuniting with his beloved donkey, Baldomera, after spending over two months apart because of a mandatory coronavirus quarantine.
During the lockdown, Fernández’s brother cared for Baldomera, and the two siblings kept in touch through video chats. Even so, Fernández, who lives about 20 miles away from the mountain that Baldomera calls home, still worried that the donkey would not remember him when they finally met again.
Baldomera quickly soothed his friend’s fears, running up to Fernández to greet him with love and affection.
“Hello!,” Fernández excitedly said, greeting his animal companion in Spanish. “What’s up? Where is my little donkey?”
“I am not embarrassed for you to hear me cry,” he continued, “because here is one of the best demonstrations of unconditional love that exists.”
As life slowly returns to normal in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, heartwarming moments like this one remind us of the virus’s impact on all friendships and the joy of reuniting with those we miss so dearly.
Beautiful reunion. I cried a bit too!

Assino todas as petições de forma a tornar possível o fim da tortura para com os animais, no entanto, não sei se isso chega, porque a indústria da carne é poderosa. Mas continuaremos, para pôr fim a festivais de animais na China, à engorda de perus e gansos da maneira mais cruel, ás touradas, à criação exaustiva e intensiva de animais de toda a espécie para alimentar a gula de muitos, sendo um atentado à natureza, ao ambiente e à Vida!

With all the bad news about horrific treatment of animals, this certainly helps. Sweet Baldomera.
Hard to keep one’s COMMENTS FRIENDLY. ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING WHAT PEOPLE DO !!! AND REPORT THESE MONSTERS CALLED HUMANS,BEFORÉ THEY HURT ANOTHER ANIMALAND LET THEM ROT IN JAIL AND A HEFTY FINE 😥😢
What a beautiful ending for this dear sweet soul.
some people think that signing and sharing a petition is useless because it’s just ONE name and how could ONE name do any good. This story proves that by adding your support to a petition can bring about positive changes, and that’s why I get involved.
So special to watch.
I sign all petitions, I wish I could do more. These nightmare acts of animal Abuse are beyond sinister.
I want to thank lady freethinker for all her diligent work. I could imagine the mental strength one needs when putting all her work together. I really can’t find any words to thank you for defending animals. God bless you and all involved in the process.

Never ceases to amze me people who think animals are so mentally challenged that they would not remember them! And in only two months they are going to forget them! Really???! Animals remember their loved one for years!!!!!
Qué lindo el reencuentro! Bendiciones a los dos.
OMG that was heart warming! A great end to my day. Obviously the adorable donkey had missed him too!
Thank you for these brief but MOST needed moments of kindness and happiness!!
Soooo grateful that there are people who love Gods creation…and animals..
Thank you…God bless you…
Se fosse aqui no Brasi isso não aconteceria, poucas são as pessoas que tem humanidade, aqui tem até caça ao javali 😢😢😢😢😢
That was so sweet!! I loved hearing him happily bleating away to his owner. Never be ashamed to cry over the love of an animal-this compassion makes us actually human. So glad to hear you survived!!

Donkeys don’t forget!
Señor Fernandez needs to rescue another donkey as a companion for his donkey. They are herd animals. There is plenty of room. And then 2 animals would have a good life.
Jean — interesting — is there a way to communicate this to Ismael? — He just may take advice into consideration.
This is beautiful — AND, understandable — how can you NOT have that special bond? — Ismael, you’re the best — AND, you are NOT alone — we all get you — by the way, Baldomera is wonderful and sweet.
Bellisimo!
What sweet unconditional love. It brought me to tears.
What a sweet reunion between the man and his donkey! What love!
I cried watching this video of this kind man & his love for his beloved donkey.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful story.
I’m so touched by this story. A wonderful man that loves his friend so much is a true angel….both angels.
No video to watch.
Vraiment touchant!!
This just proves the unconditional love animals have for humans such a heart warming story
Never underestimate animals, especially your “best friends”!
moche
