Cheyenne suffered external and internal injuries that the sanctuary said are too graphic to describe
An elderly horse with one eye was found with "blood all over her tail" after being subjected to a "disturbing" attack.
It was found that Cheyenne had suffered external and internal injuries that the sanctuary said are too graphic to describe. Police Scotland was contacted but no criminality was identified by officers. Writing on social media, the organisation said: "On August 1, a staff member went to check the horses and bring our oldest and most vulnerable resident, Cheyenne, in from the field for her breakfast. Cheyenne only has one eye, and doesn’t have many teeth left given her massive age and she requires a lot of TLC to keep her in good health. Cheyenne kept running away and didn’t want to be caught which is very unusual and it took a long time to catch her.
The post added: "No one can be sure exactly what has happened, but it is a distinct possibility that this injury was inflicted on her by a person and it seems some sort of object has been inserted in her. Police have been out and they were incredibly kind and took a lot of time to help us search the field for anything she could have injured herself on. Several people have searched the field and no one can find anything.
