This afternoon, a devastating update was released by the St. Landry Parish Animal Control about an injured filly who was rescued on Tuesday from a ditch alongside a road in Prairie Rhonde, Louisiana. According to the animal welfare organization, the filly, dubbed Stormy, had to be humanely euthanized because of her injuries.
The St. Landry Parish Animal Control broke the news to Facebook followers who were following the tragic story:
4 p.m. We made a decision to end Stormy’s suffering. Her spine is broke. She had no control of her bladder. Her body temp barely 92•. It is a very hard decision.
According to the animal control agency, the yearling was left behind after a horse trailer flipped – the owner/driver left the scene, and the injured filly, who was suffering in a cold ditch.
Shelter volunteers were able to remove the injured young horse from the scene and take her to the Copper Crown Veterinarian Clinic, but her injuries were too severe for her to be saved.
Rest in peace Stormy.

Wow, RIP Stormy, thanks to all who tried to help and to hell with the person that left her to die
Agreed!!!! My horses are my babies (just like my cats and dogs)…… I would NEVER abandon a precious little treasure….. poor baby, alone, in pain and afraid…… There is a spot reserved in Hell for the POS who abandoned this treasure (hope that they get there ASAP after dying alone, in pain and afraid)…..
Well who owned the trailer??
Stormy we were all praying for your recovery but just not meant to be. I pray you knew the people who rescued you, cared what happened and tried their best to get you to a vet who could help you. What disgusting and sick owner and driver to leave you laying in the ditch alone. What cowards and worthless pos!.Those who rescued you did what they could to help you and I hope you were aware of the kindness of these men and the vets office.
Please say there was an identifying tag or registration on that trailer and you can locate the monsters responsible for this sweet babies death!!!!!!!!!!!
Poor Stormy was abandoned and in pain and died from these injuries! The people or person responsible need to be severely punished!
God bless her soul. How awful whomever creep did this I pray she rests in peace & I hope the one who did this will suffer worse than the filly & die bg
Hopefully they will be able to find the person that left her there and prosecute him/her. RIP Stormy!
Thank you to the heroes who tried to give this sweet filly a chance. Thank you for your kindness
RIP Sweety ❤️
