We rescued a cow who wouldn’t stop crying, and we quickly realized why 😞

This is the story of Maybelle reuniting with her son, Miles.

The Gentle Barn is a non profit animal sanctuary with locations in Los Angeles, CA, Nashville, TN, and St. Louis, MO. We rescue neglected and traumatized animals from all circumstances, we rehabilitate them, and when they're ready we partner with them to heal people with the same stories of trauma. We rescue cows, horses, pigs, sheep, goats, chickens, turkeys, peacocks, emus, llamas, donkeys, and more. Our mission is to show people the love and magic of animals by sharing their stories and how living a gentle life can help heal animals, humans, and the world.

Thank you for being sensitive to the feelings of mother cow and reuniting her with her baby. God will always bless you for your kindness. ❤️

Cows need friends. They are herd animals.

"Stole the milk", tells me everything I need to know about this channel.

Animals have feelings just like humans. The sooner we realize this, the better it is for the world! Thank you for the rescue of "Maybelle" and return her baby back to her in the sanctuary! God bless you, fine people! ❤🎉

She was used to being constantly surrounded by other cows, she was lonely in general. It didn't matter what cow you brought to her, it would have made her happy

I grew up on a cattle farm. Cows will absolutely search and call for their babies for days on end if they are separated. My father transported a cow to a pasture miles from home but accidentally took the wrong calf with her. He initially couldn’t register why the cow was so distressed until she got away from us and ran home. She found her baby.

I've been raised around cows, they do not care for their babies. In fact, they will leave them alone for hours and often leave them behind when being chased. At that age that calf was old enough to follow his mom but not need her, animals are not the same as humans. They DO separate from their mothers, even if it's just to join the herd.

She was just lonely, and her looks like she needs to be milked, otherwise, her udders could get infected and hurt her even worse.

What a BEAUTIFUL OUTCOME. Animals have feelings, too ❤️

[brendaloose]

Oh thank you so much for bringing them together. She deserves this. I’m so happy for them. I can’t believe how happy I am about a cow, but it’s heartwarming.

Thank you so much for bringing the mama cow and the calf together it meant so much to the mama cow beautiful video ❤

[bethrappeport]

She is a single cow. They are herd animals, and she probably was never alone her entire life. She likely was looking for any other bovines, any age or breed.

Thank you for reuniting the mother and her child. Too bad people can't do that and be honest and true and loving like animals. ❤

[elaine_rose]

This is so sad and so beautiful all at the same time. Its amazing that you took time to notice she was upset and go to the lengths you did to reconnect them to bring peace to both there lives ❤️

This cow was not looking for other cows. She was looking and calling her baby.

I grew up in the country and in farms.

When a cow is separated from its mom, they will not stop calling for their babies.

They can be among 100 other cows horses and donkeys, but they will look for their baby nonstop.

Animals are truly amazing, and they deserve respect.

She was lonely because cows are herd animals. There's a very cute bond between the two though, and they have adorable names!

[ritavalencia]

That was a very compassionate thing you did for this cow may God bless you and your family. Have a very merry Christmas and a wonderful, happy healthy new year. God bless you.

[ed_sivan]

Cows are social animals, they need friends, she was crying, because she was alone.

[crystalholyoak]

It wasn't that she missed her baby it was that her bag or udder was too tight and causing her pain. Cows are also herd animals and she was probably lonely so any cow would work. Depending on how old the calf was it could help relieve the pressure on her bag and give her a friend.

[JudyRichards-uo]

As a Mother I can only imagine how hurt she was having her baby taken away and the poor baby without his Mama. It was so wonderful of you to reunite them. God bless you all.

[kellymordini]

Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to bring her baby back to her! I wish everyone was like that
