Memphis Wilder
Memphis Wilder and his sister Donna Marlow were rescued from a small farm in north Florida where they were living in small pens filled mud and their own excrement for some time. An urgent plea for someone to help them came about because they were running out of time – likely expected to drown in their pens with a coming rainstorm that evening. We agreed to take them in and a kind group of individuals transported them to the sanctuary late that night. They arrived nervous and fearful but quickly warmed up to the human residents at the sanctuary. Now Memphis and Donna Marlow can’t get enough human interaction. Memphis will drop for belly rubs the second he sees you!
