Alberta rancher heading to California to help horses displaced by wildfire
OLDS, Alta. — A retired Alberta rancher is getting ready for a long trip to help hundreds of horses that have been displaced by wildfires in California.
Darrell Glover says when he saw news reports about the destructive fires he knew he needed to do something for the animals that have suffered because of the disaster.
He says horse owners who were forced to flee the flames couldn’t take their horses with them, so they let them go fend for themselves.
Glover is planning to haul more than 6,300 kilograms of donated feed to a California ranch that is looking after the displaced animals.
