Protestors say high school tradition of 'donkey basketball' is animal cruelty
Posted: 03/02/2013
REDFORD TOWNSHIP, Mich. (WXYZ) - Protestors took aim Friday night at a high school fundraiser that they say crosses the line into animal cruelty.
They marched outside of Redford Union High School, where a booster club held their annual 'Donkey Basketball' game.
We're told the event has been a tradition at the school for more than 30 years. Organizers say the donkeys are working animals and are not mistreated.
The protestors say there are better ways to raise money.
