Discarded Dairy Calves Arrive to the Sanctuary



Animal Place News                                Animal Place Website 

July 2011 

  Dear omss,

 

Linus had to be carried to the trailer 

Give a warm and hearty welcome to the truly happy bovines - Douglas and Linus! These two adorable calves were saved from slaughter, along with three others. I know you will fall in love with them as much as I have already.

 

The five calves are the discards of the dairy industry - the male calves. Stripped at birth, Douglas and Linus never nursed from their own mother. Instead they ended up at auction, sold for a measly $5 bucks a head. The individual who bought the five calves stuffed them into a dirt pen so small, they could barely turn around.

 

A neighbor complained -compassion in action- and Santa Cruz Animal Services was called out. Officer Todd Stosuy became immediately concerned when he saw the calves, noticing their painfully protruding ribs. One calf could barely stand. A veterinarian agreed, and the five calves were swiftly confiscated and taken to the shelter.

 

The man was raising the calves for slaughter. Male dairy calves are either killed at a young age (3-16 weeks) for veal or sold at auction for $3-20 and killed for their flesh. They know such little compassion, that when we received the call, we had to help.   

Few animal control agencies take cruelty to farm animals seriously, so we work tirelessly with those who do. We agreed to take in two of the calves, while another sanctuary, Farm Sanctuary, took the remaining three.

But we had to wait while the individual who starved them decided whether to take the issue to court or relinquish all five calves. We cheered when he chose the latter and, more importantly, declared he probably would not be raising calves for a long time (we hope that means forever).   

The only milk mustache we support! 

I am happy to report that Douglas and Linus, along with the three other calves, are slated for sanctuary, not slaughter, that their lives will be long and happy. Unfortunately, I cannot say the same for the millions of other male dairy calves who are born each year. They face the same fate as Douglas and Linus...they are the dirty little secret of the "happy cow" industry.

There is a solution. Next time, at the grocery store, skip the milk aisle and check out the wide variety of alternatives available - soy, almond, rice, oat, the diversity is impressive! Add the new "milk" to cereal and let your tastes buds adjust. Then try different cheese alternatives, yogurt, cream cheese and sour cream.

I can make this guarantee - you will feel absolutely awesome making these more compassionate choices. You are making a difference for little Douglas' future brothers!

-Marji Beach, Education Manager

PS: Did you know we don't even have a special hospital barn for Douglas and Linus? Right now, they'll be hanging out in a part of the potbellied pig barn. Help us build an isolation barn for animals like Douglas and Linus today!

Dear omss,

 
Here's what's new at the Houston Zoo.
Aurora smiling

Aurora's in the News

 

Baby Aurora Orangutan has become a star, with news of her birth and hand-raising traveling all around the world. She then was a finalist in the Cutest Zoo Baby contest. And just last week, the Houston Chronicle did an extensive article on Aurora and her caregivers. Read the article in the Chronicle.

 

You can see the latest video about a day in her life, and the caregivers who tend to her every need, 24/7, at the bottom of this newsletter. And we've added as-of-yet unseen photos to her album. Click HERE to view.

 

Aurora has truly become an ambassador for her species.
