PETA India rescued the weary Ranbir (left) from Mumbai in 2013 when the group mechanized the city’s Victoria carriage rides. He then lived with Animal Rahat at its Sangli sanctuary—where he met his life partner, Alia (right). After many grueling years of being forced to haul passengers, he suffered from ill health and eventually took a turn for the worse. Despite the sadness over his passing, there’s joy in knowing that his final years were the best that they could be.
