Cow Trip: A Retired Dad Agrees to Rescue a Baby Cow
This is one of those videos that you start watching and then can’t really stop until you’ve finished. Cow Trip tells the story of an effort to save a baby cow by driving it (and another baby cow rescue) in a not-huge SUV 600 miles from Vermont to a sanctuary in Maryland.
A calf in Vermont hits the lottery when a farmer decides to save him. But someone has to drive the baby cow 600 miles to his new home. A freshly retired doctor and his filmmaker daughter volunteer for the job, but nothing goes as planned. What emerges is an unlikely story of a community of people who will do anything to give one calf a real home.
I think maybe this needs to be a children’s book?
