The Heifer Who Ran Away

NYT:

The police said the slaughterhouse from which the heifer came was in the area of 158th Street and Beaver Road. There are several slaughterhouses in that area, but none came forward immediately to claim the heifer, Mr. Gentles said.

“We want her to live,” he said. “We want her to live out her life, absolutely.”

Mr. Gentles said the agency had already contacted Farm Sanctuary, a vegan farm in the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York that takes in animals found running loose in New York City, and called other sanctuaries as well.

A vegan farm that takes in animals found running loose in New York City? I guess I should have known there would be such a thing.
