ROWAN COUNTY, N.C. (QUEEN CITY NEWS) — It’s with a heavy heart a local ranch had to say goodbye to three of its mules after a tragic accident on Sunday.
Mountain Mule Packer Ranch said that a tree fell on a fence and three mules left the pasture. Tragically, Kev, Vader, and Amigo were hit and killed while on the road.
The mules were used to train military members and helped numerous families affected by Hurricane Helene, the ranch said on Facebook.
“In the heart of a mule lies the spirit of persistence, unyielding to the weight of its load,” it reads on the Mission Mules website.
