In difficult economic times, circuses also have to make tight budgets. The animals bought in the optimism of better times lose their place. When the circus made a guest appearance near Deggendorf, the director remembered Gut Aiderbichl and paid us a visit. We agreed to take in the three most controversial cases: Ludwig the donkey and the two pony stallions Bubi and Blacky were allowed to become Aiderbichlers. If we hadn't helped, they would have been threatened with slaughter. With us, they have now swapped the circus tent for the big top.
