A Wheatland County sanctuary that cares for abandoned and surrendered farm animals faces an uncertain future after having a permit application to keep operating denied.
"That's actually quite destructive. And it's something that I think will determine what it feels like, living out here."
"It was very discouraging to see that, you know, we do things in such an incredible, caring way, you know, providing that type of care for our residents out here and the farmland, the infrastructure … all of that is being taken care of," Madill said. The development permit application had been made due to complaints received and it is likely there will be more issues if the permit is approved.Tours and volunteers visiting the site adversely affect the neighbors.The sanctuary's plight has drawn some high-profile support.
