Delta had the dreadful bad luck to not only be going for slaughter but also to get injured on the lorry, with a dreadful cut to his leg - naturally since he was going for meat, he was given no veterinary treatment, as the pain relief and drugs would make him unfit for human consumption, so he just had to suffer. A lot of people were touched by his distress and his injury, that he was purchased and put in a foster home in France, where he could be attended to properly. Once he is fit and well he will be rehomed.
He is only a baby and in dreadful condition. The outdoor pictures show him in his foster home, relaxing and recovering, the indoor ones, where he is crammed in with the shetland ponies, are at the fattening farm where he was left with his injury untreated.
