4 Buddy By Eileen Ditsler, Icehouse Llamas and Doug Bearmar, Black Mountain Pack Llamas Eileen s story January 28th 2017 Facebook Post: This llama was found standing outside our front gate today by my husband. I am thinking someone dumped him. We live at the end of a dirt road with hills in back of us. We do not get any traffic on our road. I just think it is weird a llama shows up and as far as I know no one around us has llamas except us. And we are not missing any. Last month we had a package stolen and last week someone kicked in our mailbox. This llama seems to be a yearling and not handled, he is intact and not halter broke. Anyone Want a llama???? Sigh Eileen Ditsler: How did he catch him? Susan Lewis: just waited and had a pen open next to HP and he slowly walked in with Russ behind him. January 29th Facebook Post: It is official, someone dumped a young llama at our place yesterday. Our neighbor heard a truck and there was a llama. Some people SUCK!!!! Especially those who have animals and don t know how to care for them!! Thank you my dear llama friend Eileen who will take him. I can t print what I wish on those stupid people who left this poor guy. Susan Lewis: He needs training because he is not use to people and refuses to be touched. This is the beginning of Buddy s story. A llama dumped outside a friends gate and abandoned. Since Susan has switched gears and concentrates on showing her dogs, she did not have time to work with a wild llama. So I agreed to come pick him up and see what I could do with him. I hoped I could find him a home quick. I drove to Susan s with my 24 foot livestock trailer, as its all I have to transport llamas. Luckily, Susan s husband Russ was home as I found there was no way I could have caught and haltered the llama by myself. It took us nearly half an hour to get close enough to catch him without him totally freaking out. We were concerned he d try to jump out of the horse corral and hurt himself. He was shaking and feared for his life. This llama had not been touched or handled ever. Once Russ got a halter on him, we let him stand a few moments.
5 Slowly we began to try to get him moving. It ended up being a tug and release drag from the stall to the trailer. I think he only made one step forward under his own steam. Getting him onto the trailer was struggle. Touching his front leg and pulling him into the trailer was strenuous, but finally it was done. Susan hugged me and said thank you for taking him. I sighed-this Wasn t going to be easy. At home I parked the trailer in the yard, opened all the doors on the trailer and went about my chores. The llama suspiciously watched me for a couple of hours. He did not venture out on his own. When I was done with things, it was time he came out. I caught him easier as he still had the halter on. More pull and release to the edge of the trailer, and he stepped out gingerly. Thank goodness no leaping. It took us 10 minutes or so to get less than 40 to his new stall. In he went and halter came off. Whew! I decided to give him a day to settle in. He watched me work the other llamas on the obstacles in the yard. When I d go in to clean, he d scurry To the farthest corner away from m e. He was not interested in me at all. I knew it would be best for him first to learn to control himself and not force myself on him. I decided to start slowly getting into his personal space using positive reinforcement-walking away from him once he stood still. We worked this way a few days until I could approach him and touch him without rushing away (most of the time). Then I started incorporating the halter. By the end of the week, I could approach and put the halter around his neck without a wreck. The following week we were scheduled to go to a show where we pen the llamas on a grass area away from crowds. I decided to take him there so he could get more exposure to new things, but not have to be around large crowds. I asked a friend if he d be interested in taking on a new boy. There was guarded interest. With the goal in mind of having Galaxy (the name I called him) being able to be haltered and walk on a loose lead, I worked with him a little every day. When O could finally put the halter on his head without a struggle, we took a stroll around the yard. The next day we went around the cul de sac. Each time out, I d have him load into the trailer too. February 17th 2017 It s time to go to the show, he could walk nicely on a loose lead and load. He was still on guard and highly suspicious of new things. I found him to be level headed and while not really interested in learning, he wasn t fighting or balking at the process either. Day 2 at the Fair, I decided to bring him ring side to see the other llamas. I tied him in a safe place on the backside of the bleachers as it was my other llama s turn in the show ring. Galaxy seemed relaxed watching everything so he stayed there over an hour. No one paid him any attentionno drama to call attention to himself.
6
7 The next day, my friend asked about Galaxy. I explained he had walked past him several times the day before at the show ring. He was impressed that the wild llama had not caused a spectacle. I again brought him ring side and tied him up. My friend told me a bit later that he would take him back to our pens. When I walked back, he was tied to my friend s trailer. I didn t realize he had meant that he would take him! Doug s Story When I first met Buddy, he was nothing like I expected. My mind was closed expecting some old gangly broken-down llama that lived a hard life. Until the day he was dumped some where. Nothing could be farther from this as Buddy was young and very compliant. WE met ringside at the Indio Date Festival. He was chillin in the back area checking out all the happenings. If you have not been to the Date Festival, it s a site to be seen. You know you are at Indio when you re on the performance course and monster trucks are flying by in the next arena over (no joke), or the fabulous Mexican equestrian team is in full form alongside our llama arena. Buddy was taking it all in and looking the better for it. Right away, I knew I would take him home. It s the first long term intact male I ve had on our ranch as we pack exclusively with Ccara females. But Buddy spoke to me some how and right away, we connected. After a while at the llama show, I needed to go tank up on some tasty fair food. I decided Buddy would be fine tied to my stock trailer while I found some food you can only get at fairs (you know the kind). After getting almost out of the camping area I heard Loose Llama.! Oh great! I think what knuckle head lost their llama. Me! Buddy was walking off and went right back to Eileen s trailer. She and her bestie Crystal calmly walked over and picked up his lead and gave me another attempt to tie him out. Good friends I have in the llama world, giving me a second go and all. Buddy was not running off; he was going back home with Eileen, or so he thought. Buddy is small compared ti my tall 48 pack animals. All the girls were curious but ready to smash him as soon as they looked at him. On the three hour trip home in the same trailer, it was some what traumatic for ol Buddy. He managed it and I was newly proud of him for enduring the trip with five big girls being nasty to him while he was tied in a back area of the stock trailer. Buddy was entirely stoked to get his own huge pipe corral area on the ranch. It was actually nice to use up all the pipe corral that was in stand-by mode for Buddy s new zone. We have an old broken down rescue gelding on the property that wanted to do Buddy bad like no ones business, so initially we had to make Buddy his own pad. The best location was somewhat close to all the other eight females and across the fence from Rusty, the rescue gelding. After a couple weeks I could come out early and find Rusty and Buddy sleeping right next to each other along side the fence. He had lived up to his namesake and was now Rusty s Buddy too.
8 Since he was a light woolen animal, there was not much to shear. I gave him a smart cut which is my version of a barrel cut with some flair. He handled the summer and extreme heat well and was ready to go for a walk any day I came for him after work. He even liked the inside of our house, which is a good test for a llama, and didn t break anything. Recently, some of the Llama Association of Southern California members were encouraging me to step up Buddy s game and enter him in a show. His first outing was again a four hour trailer ride with only four girls that would like to have seen him in some other trailer. He made it again with no llama drama. He is truly a bud to others. Buddy showed in the youth division with some fine young exhibitors and leaned a lot in performance at the Antelope Valley Fair in Lancaster. California Local After one llama killed, rancher sets sights on mountain lion March 19,2014 This article is close to my heart, because one of the llamas came from my house. Tracey Wallace A San Bernardino County woman has been given permission to shoot and kill the mountain lion blamed for killing her llama should it return to her 60 acre ranch in Devore. The mountain lion was spotted in the area over the weekend and Shelly Smith, who has lived on the Cable Canyon Road for more than 25 years, blames the state s drought for driving the mountain lion down onto her property. We re just assuming that he s thirsty and hungry and coming down for that reason, but unfortunately it s terrorizing our property, Smith told NBC-LA. After hearing screaming sounds a few weeks ago, Smith said she found her llama, Frosty dead and her other llama Katerpea had been bitten. I have been shearing these llamas for about 7 years and Shelly has always taken great care of them. After this happened and she talked to me about it. I suggested that at night and when she was not at home that I would lock them in her barn. Shelly has since then moved back east. I ended up taking back Katerpea and rehoming him to a very nice lady.
9 Wildlife Waystation January 2018 Creek Fire Dear Friends, As many of you know, in the early morning hours on December 5th, the Creek Fire started less than one-quarter mile south of the Wildlife Waystation. We ve done our best to keep you up dated via and social media during this last month, but, we re also aware the vast majority of you do not subscribe to our newsletter or follow us on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter. If you use these technologies, we encourage to you to find us! You ll get news much faster in the future. We are so relieved that almost everyone made it home. We were sad to lose one macaw due to either high stress or smoke inhalation. During the fire, we evacuated all of our delicate, small and medium animals, most of which had to spend several days in crates. This created enormous stress for them and upset their sensitive systems. Meanwhile, the majority of our lions, bears, tigers, hoof stock and all of our chimpanzees had to shelter in-place. The air quality was vey bad, and this was a terrifying situation for us and them. The fire blazed 360 degrees around the ranch s property and burned a significant amount of our land. It took several days to save the center of the property with our main enclosures, hospital and kitchen. The office was also spared as fire crews held ground against the flames just a few feet from our doors. Dozens of fire engines, with hundreds od fire fighters from all around California, worked to save us. Multiple helicopters dropped thousands of gallons of water. Recently, we were so grateful to meet pilots and members of numerous teams who went above and beyond the call of duty during those treacherous days. Words of thanks will never be enough for all the firefighters who put their lives on the line for our staff and animals. Winds were also very destructive blowing roofs off enclosures, destroying gates, downing trees and blowing brush with other debris far and wide. After the fire was finally contained, dozens of our volunteers came to help with the heavy lifting to clear roads, paths and enclosures. Thank you for always being there for us! We know how very worried you were during those days without much news. Wildlife Waystation staff worked around the clock throughout the fire and for many days afterwards to ensure everyone s safety, and to keep all the animals hydrated and fed at their temporary evacuation locations. It took an extraordinary team - veterinarians, lab technicians, keepers, animal handlers, maintenance crew, security and office personnel united together-to take on any and every job. They worked professionally, quickly and without hesitation. Our staff put the well-being of the animals first, while leaving their own families for days. Today, we are grateful for so many things. We ve tackled many challenges, and fires during our 41 years, but never have we experienced anything quite like this. Martine Colette Taken out of the Wildlife Waystation Jan 2018 Newsletter
