Darwin

Jersey (Cow)
Birthdate: est. 6/1/2020
Darwin is a very playful, very affectionate young cow who thrives on attention. Since arriving at the Sanctuary, she’s grown more confident and social, with a mischievous streak that occasionally emerges. She especially loves being hugged, and will often wrap herself around a human’s torso in return! Within her herd, she acts as a big sister to twins Milton & Anya, and is especially affectionate towards Calvin, the oldest of the bunch. Always ready to make new friends, sponsoring Darwin means supporting a special cow with a heart of pure gold!

Darwin was rescued in June 2021. She was born on a dairy farm and later purchased by a family as a pet for their young daughter. Once there, Darwin cried every night for a cow companion, clearly longing for her own kind. Recognizing that she needed more than they could provide, the family chose to surrender her. They left the final decision to their daughter, who kindly and thoughtfully chose Sanctuary as Darwin’s forever home.
