On the night of Tuesday, September 18, 2007 a cow was spotted on the streets of Queens. She was tagged for slaughter, but escaped that fate and literally ran for her life. Police and firefighters captured her and brought her to Animal Care & Control in Manhattan. From there, Farm Sanctuary’s rescue team stepped in to bring the fugitive cow, now named Maxine, to safety at our 175-acre sanctuary for farm animals where she will live out her life in peace and comfort.

Thanks to the people who responded to help this cow in need, Maxine will have a life full of green pastures, a warm cozy barn, nourishing food and fresh water, veterinary care, a herd of cattle friends, and the love of shelter caregivers at Farm Sanctuary.

  • This is a really touching story and a great way to talk about the ills of the slaughter houses through a very sweet micro-story. I love that cow!

  • I think three paragraphs to read right at the beginning is too much. How about saving the third one for the end. You could also see how breaking up the first two into, maybe, three smaller pieces worked.

    Thanks for this surprisingly interesting and touching POD.

  • Joshua-

    this could have been a drab piece given the subject matter, however you were able to render a touching and beautiful piece. Green Light from me.

    I wish we could find some footage from the actual getaway.
