As an animal lover I would just like to make 2 points concerning this heart breaking affair.
1) I'm so very very happy and relieved that she is now going to longleat safari park to live out the rest of her days in peace.......better late then never

2) That pathetic piece of scum that was smashing her legs with an iron bar and stabbing her in the head with a pitchfork.
People like him should have done to them what they do to defencless animals.
Let's see how bloody funny he think's it is then, and I would be first in line to volanteer my services

The thing with gutless little cowards like him is that they only abuse those that can't fight back.
I bet he would'nt have been so quick to start hitting her if her legs were'nt shackled together.
If you told him to walk outside into the street and start a fight with the first large rugged looking bloke that he come's across, he would piss his pants and run away.
Absolutely Pathetic, and I hope to see him in handcuffs soon
