How old was Simpson's donkey when he died and where did he die?
It is not known where or when Simpson's donkey died. After Simpson was killed, his donkey was led by New Zealand schoolteacher Richard Henderson to still continue carrying the wounded. The men could not bear to leave the donkey behind, and records show that Simpson's donkey was evacuated with the ANZACs when they left Gallipoli. When they reached one of the Greek islands, the donkey disappeared, which was rather upsetting to the Australians as they wanted to bring the donkey back to Australia to be hailed a hero. They accused the island people of stealing Duffy, as donkeys were a valuable commodity. However, since it was probably the donkey's original home (the donkeys were bought from farmers on the Greek Islands, such as Lemnos) there is a good chance Duffy broke its own tether when it smelt home.
