Calf And Piglet Who Fell In Love On A Roadtrip Are Still Inseparable 4 Years Later | The Dodo
Үй жануарлары мен аңдар
The Dodo's Executive Producer Joanna Zelman took a road trip with a piglet and a calf 4 years ago. It was one of our favorite stories ever, so we checked back in on them to see if it lasted... ❤️
Special thank you to everyone who shared their story with us!

the sadness of the cow mom watching her baby calf being carried out made me burst into tears.

The dairy industry is brutal. This is a rare happy story. Most male calves are killed. Remember that animals are friends not food.

It breaks my heart that dairy farmers have no humanity for these emotional beings just letting their mothers suffer because we need milk we don’t need it.

Wow, I had almost exactly the same thing happen to me. Last year a piglet bounced out of a livestock truck (we live in Iowa) onto the highway then the median strip in front of me. I drove her to a friend's place to live on her horse ranch. She's living her best life.

It was so sad watching momma cow watching her baby being carried away. That was heartbreaking. Other than that this was a beautiful wonderful love story all around.
Ummmm, looks like more than just Marley and Eli were falling in love on the road trip. You two look perfect together. 💘💘
It was so beautiful to see the calf and the piglet enjoying absolute freedom. The only thing that breaks my heart is that their mothers will never experience that amazing feeling. They will keep confined to their miserable existences. How painful!! Anyway, thank you, thank you for saving their babies and giving them a wonderful life.
Eli and marley what a BEAUTIFUL friendship they have
A Clever Calf, A Pretty Piglet, And Gatorade!! That Is A WINNING COMBINATION!! How Awesome!!

Yup! 😢
Plot twist: the passenger and the driver also fell in love. Founded an animal rescue farm in Savannah, GA, named it "The Calf and the Pig Farm" and lived happily ever after......... Double plot twist: apparently, she has a husband. This is going to be made into a movie. Suggestions for actors: Gal Gadot for the female lead; Brad Pitt for the male lead and Ed O'Neil for the home-alone husband?

what a beautiful story and how fitting that her hand/arm was "scarred" on the day she they were freed.....God Bless them.
The calf watching the sky for the first time ❤😭 it's horrendous what humans do to ANY living beings that can be turned to profit. Thank you for covering this story, it's so important to constantly remind people that animals FEEL all the emotions we do - sorrow, frustration, joy, etc. They deserve our respect. And thank you to all the animal sanctuaries for the endless work they do to provide safety and love to their resident animals ❤
i love it when you show livestock getting rescued, i think more people need to see how full of life they are. they are just as worthy of a long, healthy life than any other pet or animal. thank you for what u do
I like people who save farm animals instead of eating them 💋
I absolutely love these 4 fabulous people who gave us this wonderful story with the best resolution ever! (Dodo never leaves you hanging - there's always a great ending even if it's a memory/tribute story about an animal who has lived his best life. Other sites should learn from them)

This is like a barnyard variation of Romeo and Juliet. Eli and Marley aren't from rival families, just very different species. Thankfully, this story has a MUCH happier ending!

There is no greater joy in life than rescuing and helping animals in need. The love is ten fold!
I love odd couples, esp both of these cute baby animals! Their inseparable mingling made me smile throughout the entire video. I esp love the piglet & calf's instant love that developed during their long travel -- it's truly remarkable! I also love how much animals possess a warm-heartedness, loving-nature & strong survival spirit. They are truly inspirational! ❤❤❤
They’re living the good life now 🤍🖤🩷
A real life fairy tale ❤
That’s what animals who feel safe behave like. I love seeing it.
This looks like the most memorable road trip of all times. Something to tell your grandkids about.
The music overlays take away from how precious this truly is...not necessary.
What’s better than seeing our animals friend all happy
Such a weird reboot of “When Harry Met Sally”, never would have thought to add animal to it.
What a beautiful life they get to live together !! Such amazing human beings out there , so great to see..
That part where Mum was watching her baby being carried out ….. Dear God 😭😭😭😭😭
These are such heartwarming stories. Of people who are so compassionate and caring about animals making sure that they are healthy and stay that way. A big shout-out thank you to all the people who helped in this journey. You are simply amazing❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙌🙌🙌🙌

I will be going into agriculture at the end of the year (all things go well) and I'm so excited to go and rescue a few male calves, some piglets and a donkey or two to be permanent companions on the farm. I hope I'm able to rehome or facilitate any male calves that come along in my journey as well. I love seeing stories like this.
"GOD BLESS YOU BOTH FOR RESCUING THESE PRECIOUS BABIES AND BRINGING THEM BOTH TOGETHER TO BE FRIENDS FOREVER"!!!👍💖🥰
Its not weird. Its wonderful!
Precious and heartwarming. ❤
The only sad part of this is that they didn't manage to get the mum too. Nonetheless a beautiful outcome for these lovely creatures. Thank you to all involved in their rescue.
They're so cute ❤
I made friends with a dairy cow once. But never seen in person a pig or goat. I’ve seen sheep before and petted one and I’ve met donkeys in person. So great that she can meet all these animals.

Critter Creek Farm Sanctuary is located in Gainesville Florida that's about 20 miles from where I live in Gator Country! 🧡💙 So glad everything worked out for Eli and Marley!
It's heartbreaking that they have to be 'survivors' in the first place. 😓 Farm animals have no rights at all as they are viewed as commodities, products. A hellish short life and and a violent death awaits them. God bless you for making a difference and saving these babies 🙏
Beautiful!!! I hope those two end up together too.
"Everything bagel, toasted twice, please make sure they toast it twice, thank you" How much u wanna bet they didnt toast it twice
OMGosh I think I saw another post of this amazing animal pair, dynamic duo, double trouble! This is ONE OF THE BEST DODO''s and I hope your tetanus shot was up to date before that literal cut from the fence. Thank all you for saving all of these animals' lives! The shot of the goats gone a muck was priceless too! Best, from Colorado!
