The calf was eventually recaptured after a few minutes on the run, according to Stura.The calf was then transported back to the farm she came from in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Stura said he asked the owners of the calf to let her live out her life at Skylands Animal Sanctuary, but it took some convincing before they eventually agreed.“We immediately offered the calf a lifelong home, but these people have easily been the least receptive to letting an animal life that I’ve ever dealt with,” Stura posted on the Skylands Animal Sanctuary website. “Maybe the news coverage and some public sentiment will help them see this poor kid as an individual.”Skylands Animal Sanctuary cares for more than 400 animals who were all rescued from slaughterhouses, live markets, and other instances of abuse, according to its website.Stura said he will eventually give the calf a name.</div></body>
