Bonnie's Great Escape

Bonnie was a young cow who lived on a farm in Holland, New York. She was just four months old when her story took a surprising turn. The farm's owner sadly passed away, and his family decided to sell all of his cows.

When it was Bonnie's turn to be loaded onto a trailer to a new farm, she made a daring escape. She bolted into the nearby woods and vanished from sight.

The Deer Family

Not long after, people in the area started to spot something unusual on their security cameras. There was a cow hanging out with a herd of deer! These deer had accepted Bonnie as one of their own, and she seemed to be enjoying her new, funny-looking family.

One clever woman named Becky noticed Bonnie and her deer friends on her wildlife cameras. Although the sight was cute, Becky knew it wasn't safe for Bonnie to stay in the wild. Winter was coming, and some neighbors weren't too happy about Bonnie roaming their land.

A Plan to Help Bonnie

Becky decided to take action. She visited Bonnie every day, bringing her food and kindness. Over time, Bonnie began to trust Becky. That’s when Becky knew it was time to find Bonnie a secure home.

A New Home

Becky contacted Farm Sanctuary, an organization that helps rescue farm animals. They sent a team who managed to corral Bonnie and transport her safely to her new home.

Happy Ending

Today, Bonnie is safe and happy in her new environment. She’ll spend the rest of her life surrounded by love, maybe even telling tales about the deer who took her in when she needed a family the most.
