Mule was awakened Friday night near Camarillo by park rangers and told he had to leave. He refused, was arrested and transported to Alhambra City Jail by US Marshals (due to lack of space, many jails are now contracted as “holding facilities”). Lady and Little Girl were taken to the animal shelter in Camarillo. The third mule, Pepper, was not traveling because her lameness has returned. She has been given a nice home. Mule was released from jail yesterday afternoon and was transported to the animal shelter. He was not charged with any impound fees.
