Escapee Cow Resides at East Valley Animal Sanctuary Following Slaughterhouse Breakout
In the scorching heat of San Tan Valley, Arizona, a 4-year-old cow named Mootilda made a daring escape from a local slaughterhouse. This brave bovine's journey took her miles away from her captors, leading to a heartwarming tale of resilience and compassion.
Mootilda was eventually captured, but her story did not end there. Aimee Takaha, the founder and owner of Aimee's Farm Animal Sanctuary, witnessed Mootilda's determination for freedom and took it upon herself to rescue the animal.
After learning about Mootilda's plight, the slaughterhouse informed Aimee that Mootilda would have to remain if the funds for her rescue were not raised within 24 hours. In response, Aimee turned to social media, appealing to animal lovers everywhere.
The call was answered, as a wave of support flooded in. Animal lovers stampeded to raise the required $2,500, ensuring that Mootilda would not be sent back to the slaughterhouse.
Aimee reached out to the slaughterhouse to discuss Mootilda's future, and the negotiations were successful. Mootilda was rescued and now lives at Aimee's Farm Animal Sanctuary, where she will spend the rest of her days roaming free among other farm animals.
The identity of the person who organised the donation for Mootilda's rescue remains unknown, but their generosity has made a significant difference in Mootilda's life.
Mootilda's story continues to inspire, and you can witness her journey at the video player above. Her tale serves as a reminder of the power of compassion and the lengths to which people will go to ensure the safety and freedom of animals in need.
