Share This
A mother’s love.
LIVE! Helen, the bison, may not have her eyesight but she’s got a heart of gold! Italo is a male calf and a product of the dairy industry. His fate was slaughter after birth, but he was a lucky rescue. He was brought to Lighthouse Farm Sanctuary and, at just a few weeks old was introduced to Helen and they have not been apart since. It’s been almost a year. “Mother and son” sharing a watermelon together! Dani Rukin in The Pacific Northwest reporting for #JaneUnChained News.
