04 Aug Getting to know: Collin Guerra

Fly: I wanna know, where do you like to work besides the office?

Collin Guerra: At my house outside. I’ve got a pretty peaceful compound. I’ve got a pool, got my donkeys, and just like relaxing with my animals sometimes.

Fly: What other kind of animals do you have?

Collin Guerra: Six donkeys, a goat, and a pig named Patty. I also have four dogs and a cat.

Fly: What led to having such a menagerie?

Collin Guerra: We used to own a lot of cattle prior to Hurricane Katrina. We wanted to keep the agricultural side of our property alive, so we decided that it would be donkeys this time around.

Fly: What is your favorite part of owning donkeys?

Collin Guerra: The look on people’s faces when I either tell them I have donkeys or show them my donkeys. And then, the look on their face when I tell them that they can ride the donkeys. It’s cool to show people sometimes.
