Animals possess a remarkable ability to sense things that often elude human perception. While stories of dogs and cats displaying such instincts are more common, a recent incident highlights that horses, too, can exhibit extraordinary sensitivities.
Jolene Jonas and her husband, Ricky, were overjoyed upon discovering that they were expecting a baby after years of trying. However, their pet horse, Keola, reacted strangely as the pregnancy progressed, frequently hugging Jolene or gently nuzzling her belly. This perplexing behavior left the couple bewildered, though they couldn’t fathom its significance.
Jolene’s pregnancy appeared to be proceeding normally until the 25th week when she began experiencing excruciating back pain. In response, Ricky rushed her to a nearby hospital, where a doctor conducted an ultrasound to assess the baby’s condition. What happened next left the couple in utter shock—the doctor hurriedly contacted the police without providing any explanation.
Unveiling Ricky and Jolene’s Complicated Relationship
Ricky had always been tight-lipped about his family since his first encounter with Jolene. He claimed that discussing his family brought back painful memories. Over time, Jolene ceased pressing the matter, and ten years after they first met, they decided to tie the knot. However, her expectations of finally meeting Ricky’s family at their wedding were shattered—Ricky had only invited his friends.
The couple’s subsequent goal was to start a family, but their efforts to conceive proved fruitless. After consulting a doctor and undergoing health assessments, they were informed that both were in good health. A few weeks later, they received the news of their impending parenthood.
While everyone celebrated the joyous news, Keola’s behavior took an unusual turn. She showered Jolene with affectionate gestures like licking and hugging her so frequently that the couple sought veterinary advice. The vet confirmed Keola’s physical well-being, leaving the couple puzzled about her behavior.
Deciphering Keola’s Peculiar Behavior
To understand Keola’s altered behavior, Jolene delved into online research and discovered that animals often exhibit unusual behavior when something is amiss with a pregnancy. Seeking further reassurance, they consulted their regular doctor, who affirmed the baby’s health and recommended a follow-up visit in the 25th week.
Beginning from the 23rd week of pregnancy, Jolene began experiencing severe back pain. On the 25th week, Ricky rushed her to a nearby hospital due to unbearable discomfort, leading to an ultrasound examination. The results prompted the doctor to make an urgent call to the police.
In a startling moment, the doctor said, “I have to call the police.”
Upon the police’s arrival, Ricky was separated for questioning, while Jolene was required to undergo surgery for the well-being of the baby. Ricky’s interrogation extended for hours, culminating in a surprising revelation—he identified their previous doctor, the same professional they had visited for check-ups, among the individuals in custody. Astonishingly, the police informed Ricky that Jolene had an illegal medical chip implanted inside her, a device designed to manage a pregnant woman’s medical needs, which is prohibited in the United States. As the medications were purchased under Ricky’s name, the authorities were baffled by his involvement.
Following surgery to remove the illicit chip, Jolene gave birth to a healthy baby girl named Giulia after several weeks. Today, the family, including Keola, is thriving.
