Lyal and Malu were saved from the dairy industry and escaped the heartbreaking fate that most bobby calves face.
Each year in Australia, over 400,000 calves are born on dairy farms and are considered “waste” or “surplus.” Lyal and Malu were two of those calves. From the moment they were born male, they faced an unimaginable fate.
Male calves in the dairy industry are often viewed as surplus because they offer little financial benefit to dairy farmers, as they cannot be used for future breeding or milk production.
Male calves are often “disposed of” on the farm or sent on a truck to a slaughterhouse within the first few weeks of their lives. This is the heartbreaking reality for thousands of calves each day on dairy farms across Australia.
Thanks to the generosity of our donors, two precious calves are thriving in foster care and have been spared from slaughter.
Lyal and Malu are ready to find their forever home, where they will be loved as companions, not commodities.
