- Buddy the beefalo ran loose around this Connecticut town for 8 months before people came together to help send him to a sanctuary. We talked to the police captain who spent all his free time searching for him.

Lol buddy outsmarted a whole town for 8 months. He definitely deserves to live!
They all do.
The best video about whether we should be eating animals is "Gary Yourofsky - The Most Important Speech You Will Ever Hear".
Amen.
User, keep on Educating !!
michelle, there is no justification for taking someone's life when we can choose from thousands of wonderful nutritious delicious healthy foods that don't deliberately cause suffering and death to anyone.
I remember this story. I just wanted to take a minute and thank everybody who helped this magnificent animal to get him to safety .
Sooo... you remember this story?... ARE you vegan now?
@notme2day
Did I say I was vegan ? Ummm nooo I said I remember the story you pompase douche bag
@@notme2day Someone owes me a steak!
Is that before he was shot in the head and turned into burgers, steak and sausages ??
@@rayray-xs6xu No one owes you anything! Especially not the innocent animals that are being slaughtered just to please your tastebuds.
Not gonna lie, Critter Creek Farm Sanctuary seems like heaven for animals and humans!!! What a beautiful place ....
I live in CT and I remember Buddy the Beefalo it took them forever to catch him. He's really smart. At lease he gets to live a happy life now.
I grew up on a farm. At the age of 12... I finally understood a few things going on.
I've been a vegan ever since.
FYI... I'm retired, do the math and make a conscious choice on what's important in your life.
All life is sentient be it fur, feathered, scaled, shelled or other.
Be kind to yourself, your pets and each other. ❤
@@notme2day including the plants you eat? or just conveniently ignore that..
@@TheFirstShotCounts please explain ?
This is proof that they want to live just as much as any of us.
OF COURSE THEY DO!!! Animals have the RIGHT to their lives!!! We have NO RIGHT to take their lives!!!
@@CosmicTruthTeller Do wolves have the right to take the lives of deer? Do bears have the right to take the lives of fish and mice? Humans are omnivores. To be happy and healthy we need animal protein. I just wish there were a better way than these terrifying, mass murder slaughter houses.
Of course they do.
@@zephyrwlf Before my dad got sick he couldn't imagine a life without meat. Thankfully his health is better now and he hasn't had any meat or eggs or much dairy in three years. Anyway have a good one
I had two reactions: "Beefalo?!?!?" and "8 months?!?!?" This is incredible. Captain Benecchi is the man! There should be way more officers like him.
Yes, same thing I thought. We need more officers like this man.
I'm going to call them Beefalos now.
@@cristiangranados6292 A cross between a bison and a domestic cattle, hence the name beefalo. Buffalo and beef.
Buddy, "Fence, what fence!"
911, we have a fugitive. He's about 5 feet tall and weighs 1,000 pounds. And you CAN'T catch him?!? I'm so glad all of the folks committed their time and effort to provide Buddy with a great life in this sanctuary with his new family.
This suspect didn't do anything wrong to warrant being chased other than wanting to live!!
@@superomegaprimemk2he was only being chased because it wasn't exactly good for him to be living in a town or city, what if he got on the road or someone decided to shoot him? Him being chased was the best option to keep him away from the road and it worked out in the end, he's safe now

I grew up on a family farm that raised cattle for beef. It had a lot to do with why I've been a vegetarian for 40 years. This story is humans at their finest. Special thanks to Captain Ed❣
Linda why not vegan ? the egg and dairy industries are part of the meat industry
@@jjradV Good point.
Allowing emotions to dictate your diet is probably not a good idea. You have tastes for a reason. They're about survival, not the avoidance of negative emotions.
@@michaeldavid6832 There is nothing inherently emotional about wanting to reduce exploitation and killing, and if you're trying to claim that an omnivorous diet is necessary for survival then you should share your nutritional insights with the powerlifter Noah Hannibal (raised vegetarian and now 33 years vegan) who can bench-press 200kg in steroid-free competition conditions. Or the powerlifter Oliver Zamzow (29 years vegan), who can squat 265kg in steroid-free competition conditions. Or the bodybuilder Jehina Malik, who has been vegan since birth. Or the powerlifter Carey Kidd who has been vegan since birth and is built like a mountain. Or the legendary endurance runner Scott Jurek (vegan for 25 years). Or Annette Larkins, or Bellamy Young, or Lou Corona, or Shane Sterling, or Petra Nemcova, or Stephanie Gerard, or John Rose, or Victoria Moran, or Torre Washington, or Stefania Ferrario, or Kimberly Carroll, or Woody Harrelson, or Mischa Janiec, or Tia Blanco, or.…
@@michaeldavid6832 Ethics are not emotions.
Bitter sweet knowing how much personality an animal has, and how many we kill every second to feed the world
Yes.
About 80 billion land animals every year killed in the world (does not include aquatic animals).
About 1522 slaughtered every minute. Average of about 25 every second.
And hardly any of them are actually needed to feed the world.
@@bethanyhunt2704 exactly.
This is such a great story. Just shows how humans can wound a heart and heal it.
Kindness matters ❤ Thank-you, all of you for giving Buddy a better outcome and a chance for life!
Thank to all of you! 💚💛❤️
Buddy is so cute!!! That town is awesome! From having no friends to a gang! What an awesome life!!!
🥹🥹🥹And thank you officer and your entire hometown for saving buddy!! Thank your rescue farm for giving Buddy TWO girlfriends!! ❤️❤️
That's more than I have.

The dedication of this police officer and the people of the town is amazing! "I know you're listening, I see the ear."😂 So happy Buddy is in his forever home.💗
What a wonderful and sweet story. Well done everyone involved!!!! 💚💚💚💚
LOVE this story! Thanks Officer, for caring so much ❤!
Imagine all the other cows who never had a chance. Buddy made it but his family probably not.
Exactly.
Why focus on the negative.
@@biddibee3526 Because it's only by facing up to the ugly truth that we can start to make the world better by no longer paying for the exploitation and the killing. All of these animals matter.
Angels sent the cow to the paradise, this is such a heartwarming story. I appreciate.
Glad he gets to live a special life. Buddy reminds me of Kevin in “Home Alone”.
Thank you so very much for saving his life!! Enjoy your freedom Buddy!! 👍
God bless you, Captain Ed, for giving Buddy a beautiful life!
Omg I love Buddy 😍 What a living legend. He should never have to go to the slaughter. The trauma that poor boy had to deal with knowing what happened to his friends and family 💔 So glad people have compassion for him. What a beautiful beast 😍 Live long and prosper 🖖🐮
Crying at 9 am 🥲
Early mornings are for cryin!
How kind of this entire town to treat Buddy so well and save his life!
Great ending to this story! What a wonderful Officer to dedicate so much of his own time to Buddy! Same with all the town folk who came together to save him, he FOUGHT to have his life and he WON! Great work Buddy!❤
a story about more than just an escaped beefalo -- thanks for sharing, and thanks to all humane rescuers..
Im so happy that Buddy escaped in a town that has a big heart, Plymouth, and heroes like Captain Ed. You guys are the best! And thanks to the Critter Creek sanctuary too, for giving these animals safety, love, and great care for the rest of their lives. ❤
Thank you
What an amazing community, I love how invested everyone involved was in Buddy's well-being. Wow! This is very telling of how much good there still is in this crazy world and how much feeling and emotion all living things are. Buddy's fear of humans is understandable. I kept clapping as I was watching his trip to the sanctuary. The best part is watching the officer tear up. He has such a good heart. I mean, how can't he? He's a loving husband with a live for animals (that ginger cutie on his lap). Such good people. Thanks for sharing this awesome story!!!
Yes, but did he change his diet?
What a great, heartwarming story of Buddy and his human Buddies who wanted nothing but the best for him ❤
I saw this saga a little while back and remembered it fondly so I felt compelled to watch it AGAIN !!! It was as heart melting the 2 time around , and I'm glad that I took those few minutes to be reminded of Buddy's awesome story . Thank you to the entire town and especially Officer Ed for his persistent devotion to make sure that Buddy would be able to live his best life !!! 😁❤❤❤❤❤
That was such a beautiful story!! I'm literally freaking crying.. so happy for Buddy!!
What good kind folks to spend so much time to help him.I can't even imagine what it was like for buddy at the slaughter house,wish we lived in a more humane world where these poor creatures would not have to suffer so much for human greed.
Damn straight. 👏👏👏👏👏
Catsforever308, great comment, are you vegan, do you have cats and dogs ,if so do you feed them vegan food or other animals ?
@@jjradV Interesting question. I heard recently that vegan cat foods cover all the bases for nutrition, because they supplement them with things like taurine, so all the nutrients are in there.
@@user-wv8ju3dw8sWe have 2 cats adopted as kittens 4 years ago. Both are doing fine with vegan kibble.
What a great town and police captain not to mention the patience of the Captain's wife. Well done.
The look of contentment and happiness is priceless! 🥰❤️
Love me some big bad bully Buddy! So happy for his freedom at the animal sanctuary and all of his new friends! Thanks to everyone ,for helping him on his journey, to find a forever home!
I feel badly for these animals who are facing death in a slaughter house. No wonder this poor thing wanted to leave. He more than likely knew what was about to happen to him. Some of these beautiful animals deserve to live out their lives in peace. This is a beautiful place Buddy was able to go to. I'm so glad he had a happy ending!
Yes. That's why I always recommend to people that they watch the documentary "Dominion", or the video "Gary Yourofsky - The Most Important Speech You Will Ever Hear".
We're all headed to our respective slaughterhouses.
You must remember: A cow only exists because humans find them useful. Buddy would never have been born if there was no beef industry.
It's an unavoidable fact of life that life feeds on life. Humans can't digest cellulose. Animal protein isn't optional. Only a modern civilization can give the illusion that it is, but that's merely a conceit, not reality.
ALL ANIMALS DESERVE TO LIVE!!!
@@CosmicTruthTeller They all do.
@@CosmicTruthTeller 👏👏👏👏
Very fit for a big bull! lol
So glad he's in the sanctuary now.
How heartwarming ❤️ Thank God animal sanctuaries exist. God bless the people who run them and everyone who helps the animals 🤲🏻
What a magnificent bull, my heart broke seeing him so lonely....now he has a new life and a harem of his own to love ❤️
Don't say harem, they were slaves who were raped.
Thank you very much ❤
It warms my heart to know that there are people out there that bend over backwards to help animals.❤
There was a dairy farm about 50 yards from our back fence where I grew up. I recognize Buddy as a Bull. Meat is cruelty, and the sooner we make an alternative, that meat eaters like, the better.
So happy to see Buddy living his best life. You go son.❤️
Meat is cruelty, I agree. But so is dairy. Cattle have to be impregnated approx every 12 months (typically artificially) to produce profitable milk. That means a new calf every 12 months. Most of these calves are killed. In fact, dairy isn't profitable without killing cattle.
Meat is cruelty. Milk and cheese are cruelty by the same token.
They are all individuals, with personalities. Just like Buddy. I hope some eyes are opened and compassion blooms from this video. Thank you to those who were invested in helping him and getting him to the sanctuary. I used to manage a farm animal sanctuary and it was and still is the most fulfilling and rewarding "job" I've ever had. So many sweet animals. A pig named Julie who knew her name as did others. They like cuddles, belly rubs, head scritches and kindness, just like dogs and cats. It's good to not eat our friends. You don't have to eat animals to live. I hadn't heard of this particular sanctuary; I'll add it to the list of those that I support. Many thanks again, to all those who saw Buddy as a living being worth saving, and not just a meal on a plate.
💖🙏
Glad he found some peace and knows he is safe as well. Thank you to our police officers and first responders.
It’s nice that Buddy gets to retire in Florida, lol! So wonderful to see humans come together and do the right thing! Long live Buddy! 🐂💕
What a compassionate police! It was such a hilarious video
What a fantastic story!
If he helped one person see that cows are some one, not something....that would be great! There are probably over a hundred farm animal sanctuaries all over the US. I'm sure there were several far closer, but Critter Creek looks lovely.
The world needs more good cops like these folks. Well done coppers! Well done!
God blessed Buddy, used his story to touch people, soften they're hearts, opening them to seeing him as an individual being they needed to help. Beautiful. Through this video, many many more will be touched❤
What an amazing story! That is one smart cow I hope he didn’t hurt himself jumping all those fences. I’m glad he’s living his best life now among his own.
Bless you all!
This place seems so magical and lovely. Im glad these animals are getting to live out their lives comfortably and peacefully. Thank you to all involved in saving these precious creatures. ❤❤❤❤
Tears. I am so incredibly happy for Buddy. Thank you, Officer Ed, and your whole department and town. ❤
This absolutely made my day 🐾🥰👣🥰=💕
You can see how much people really care they just don't think of how and what their burgers are made from. Just watch a short documentary that's how you can help.
The best video is "Gary Yourofsky - The Most Important Speech You Will Ever Hear".
Dominion is good too but very hard to watch. Everyone should know what they're financially supporting through their consumption choices.
@@JM-lz1oi 👍👍👍
Buffalo!! Thank you so much for saving his life!!❤❤❤❤
Salute to you, Captain Ed! ❤ Many thanks to you and all involved in rescuing Buddy. God bless!
So many recent recycled videos…and I’m not complaining ‘cause they’re all the videos I love! 🥰❤️
Thank you, all who helped save this beautiful creature. ❤
Amazing. Thank You Dodo and all who helped him. Buddy showed that animals deserve to live with their family and should never be taken as just dumb.
❤❤❤❤❤
He was very lucky, so sad
Thank you to everyone...wonderful outcome. What personality Buddy has!
Best post ever!!
See? They're not stupid, they know they're being raised to be slaughtered and they don't want to be murdered. Love animals, don't eat them! ❤🤗 🥰🐃
THANK YOU!!! 🐾💝
Humans, like animals also tend to fully relax when they feel safe and included.
Hooray!! I am so happy to see Buddy in the safe place. Thank you for sending him there. He deserves this. You have a big heart and your people are special.
Please give Buddy lots of love! You & your town are good & kind people to give him a home & a future❤thank you😊
Every animal going to the live market is Buddy 😢
This was a great story, far better than most shows on today. Yay Buddy...and Captain Ed!
I live a couple towns over from where this occurred!! I remember this story!!! So happy to hear he's happy!!!!
Thanks to Captain Ed, and others who made it possible for Buddy to make his way to Critter Creek. It's stories like this that makes me feel there's still hope in the world.
What a heartwarming story! Thanks to everyone who looked out for Buddy.
Buddy fought through and deserves to live a long and happy life. Buddy is awesome!
So glad buddy found his forever home and family go bud xxxx thank you for helping him and all the animals.xx😊
What a happy ending for Buddy. Wish it would click with people that all cows, pigs, sheep, chickens, etc., deserve to live.❤
Beautiful story. It didn't take very long into the video that I was rooting for him every time he managed to escape being caught. I'm glad he has a wonderful life now with lots of friends. ❤️🐂🐃
What a wonderful community ❤
Wonderful! Thank You all 🙏 😊 So much love to Buddy, Captain Ed & his lovely understanding wife, & colleagues, the whole town, & Critter Creek Sanctuary.. & happy salutations to Buddy & his new family & his ladies Eleanor & Autumn 🎉❤
I'm so glad Buddy gets to live out his life with bovine friends and cared for by people who love him!
❤❤❤❤
Buddy is a free soul at heart ❤
I watch this video whenever I see it 🥰 this cow has no idea how many people were rooting for him to have a happy life!
Too beautiful I’m glad he got to live
Buddy knows what it's like to literally be terrified for your life on the way to a slaughterhouse. Buddy, I hope that horrific memory fades and you learn the joy of living.
Captain Ed is a great person! God bless him and the townspeople!
Cute
I am so happy for Buddy ❤Captain Ed, thank you❤
Buddy wants to live out his life to old age.🥰
Awesomeness. Im so thrilled Buddy got his forever home. 🇬🇧 ❤ 🇺🇸
Awesome people to send Buddy to a sanctuary
Beautiful story with a happy ending. If people would just realize that animals have feeling, that they are smart and that they only want to be safe,🥰
This is what happens when good souls join together
Wonderful story. How incredible a town came together, to save him.
OMG I love this story so much! This should be made into a movie. So happy for buddy!
Thanks for saving Buddy.
